The Salmonella mutagenicity of sediments from Gediz River (Western Turkey)

Gediz Nehri sedimentlerinde Salmonella mutajenite testi. Bu çalışmada, Ramsar sitesi olarak koruma altında olan, büyük öneme sahip kuş cennetinin bulunduğu Gediz Nehri deltası sedimentinin, Salmonella typhimurium TA98 ve TA100 suşları kullanılarak yapılan Ames testi ile mutajenik potansiyeli araştırılmıştır. Her iki suşla yapılan mutajenisite testleri sonucunda sediment örneklerinin hiçbirinde mutajenik madde içermediği buna rağmen gözlenen bakteri büyümesinde ki azalmaya bağlı olarak tüm örneklerin toksik olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Gediz Nehri sedimentlerinde Salmonella mutajenite testi

In this study, sediments from the delta of Gediz River which is one of the most important bird areas protected as Ramsar site were investigated for their potential mutagenicity in TA98 and TA100 strains of Salmonella typhimurium by performing Ames test (plate incorporation assay) without metabolic activation. Mutagenicity results for both strains showed that the sediment samples contained no mutagenic substance but most of them had toxic effects which decreased the growth of bacteria in all sampling sites.
