Anthraquinone is a recently identified contaminant present in teas globally, and its potential teratogenic and genotoxic impacts have yet to be fully comprehended. Hence, this study's objective was to determine anthraquinone's genotoxicity using various studies such as the Ames test , Mammalian erythrocyte micronucleus test, and in-vitro mammalian chromosome aberration study. Additionally, the study assessed its effects on maternal gestational toxicity and the fetus's teratogenicity through prenatal developmental toxicity research in rats. Results indicated that anthraquinone did not manifest mutagenic effects on Salmonella typhimurium histidine-deficient, did not cause chromosomal aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary cell subclone CHO-K1, and did not exhibit a genotoxic effect on mouse bone marrow erythrocytes. However, in the prenatal developmental toxicity study, administering anthraquinone orally to pregnant rats from day 5 to day 19 of gestation resulted in decreased body weight and food consumption of pregnant rats, along with a higher number of visceral malformations in the fetuses in the highest dose group (217.6 mg/kg BW). Additionally, two pregnant rats died in this group. The study has established the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) as 21.76 mg/kg BW, while the lowest observed adverse effect level (LOAEL) was 217.6 mg/kg BW.

In the technical route for the synthesis of avanafil, 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbamyldiimide hydrochloride (EDCI) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT) are used as reactive acid–amine binding agents. HOBT contains trace amounts of hydrazine residue, and there is a risk of introducing potentially mutagenic impurities with hydrazide-containing structures. The potentially genotoxic impurities E (Imp-E) and F (Imp-F) of avanafil with altering hydrazide-structure were synthesized by chemical method; subsequently, the impurities were evaluated and classified according to ICH M7 guidelines. Two complementary quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) evaluation systems (Derek and Sarah) based on expert rules and statistics were used to preliminarily predict the genotoxicity of Imp-E and Imp-F, and the prediction result of E was suspected to be positive. In the Ames test of Imp-E and Imp-F, in the dose range of 62.5–1000 μg per plate, with or without the presence of metabolic activation system S9, the number of revertant colonies did not exceed 2 times the number of colonies in the solvent control group and did not show a dose–response relationship, and the test results were negative. Imp-E and Imp-F were determined to be negative for genotoxicity, which could be controlled as class 5 in ICH M7, that is, non mutagenic impurity.

Benzophenone (BPs) and 4-Methylbenzylidene Camphor are used as ultraviolet (UV) filters to protect the skin and hair in personal care products. The discharging of the three chemicals may endanger the receiving water ecosystem. In the present study, the mutagenicity of BP-6, BP-8, and 4-Methylbenzylidene Camphor was tested using the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation test (Ames test) in the system with and without rat liver microsomal preparations (S9). Four S . typhimurium strains, TA97, TA98, TA100, and TA102 were employed in the Ames tests. The mutagenicity was detected from all three chemicals. The addition of S9 increased the mutation ratios of three chemicals to four strains, except BP-6 to TA100 strain and 4-MBC to TA97 and TA98 strain. In the mixed experiment, all positive effects were detected in the absence of S9. However, the results all became negative in the presence of S9. For the mixture of BP-6 and 4-MBC, positive results were detected on four tester strains except for the TA100 strain. For the mixture of BP-6, BP-8, and 4-MBC, positive results were detected on four strains. The mixture test results showed antagonism in mutagenicity for the mixture of BP-6 and 4-MBC to TA98 and TA100 strains and the mixture of BP-6, BP-8, and 4-MBC to TA100 and TA102 strains.

Ultraviolet absorbing chemicals (UV filters) are widely used in personal care products for protecting human skin and hair from damage by UV radiation. Although these substances are released into the environment during production and consumption processes, little is known about their genotoxicity effects. Our previous studies have shown that benzophenone-type UV filters exhibited acute toxicity on three species of aquatic organisms. Mutagenesis by benzophenone (BP) and benzophenone-1(BP-1) was tested in the present study by theSalmonella typhimurium/reverse mutation assay (Ames assay). All the positive reverse mutations occurred in the absence of the S9 liver extract system for both chemicals. From BP, positive mutation effects on the TA102 strain at doses of 0.05 μg/plate and 0.5 μg/plate were detected. From BP-1, positive mutation effects on the TA97 strain at doses of 0.05 μg/plate and 0.5 μg/plate, and on the TA100 strain at a dose of 0.5 μg/plate, were detected. A mixture of BP and BP-1 exhibited mutagenicity on the TA97 and TA100 strains. For the TA97 strain, the positive mutation results were detected at 10% and 50% of the mixture. For the TA100 strain, the results were detected when the mixture was at 5% and 10%. In the mixture at 5%, the concentrations of BP and BP-1 were 3.5 μg/plate and 14 μg/plate, respectively. In the 10% mixture, the doses of BP and BP-1 were 7 μg/plate and 28 μg/plate, respectively. In the 50% mixture, the doses of BP and BP-1 were 35 μg/plate and 140 μg/plate, respectively. The mixture test results suggested that there was antagonism in mutagenicity between BP and BP-1.
