Antifungal Formulation Based on Saturated Sucrose Solution: Evaluation of its potential genotoxic activity using the Allium cepa test

In the present study, the potential genotoxicity effects of the antifungal formulation based on saturated sucrose solution were evaluated employing the Allium cepa test. Five exposure times were evaluated, mineral water was used as negative control, and experiments were carried out in duplicate. For...

description In the present study, the potential genotoxicity effects of the antifungal formulation based on saturated sucrose solution were evaluated employing the Allium cepa test. Five exposure times were evaluated, mineral water was used as negative control, and experiments were carried out in duplicate. For statistical analysis, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey HSD post-test were used (statistical significance α = 0.05). Frequencies of chromosomal abnormalities ranged from 0% to 0.24%. We conclude that the antifungal formulation based on sucrose saturated solution did not present a significant genotoxic activity, considering the results of the present study involving the Allium cepa test.

En el presente trabajo, los potenciales efectos genotóxicos de la formulación antifúngica basada en la solución saturada de sacarosa fueron evaluados utilizando la Prueba de Allium cepa. Se evaluaron por duplicado cinco tiempos de exposición empleando agua mineral como control. Para el análisis estadístico, se empleó un análisis de varianza (ANOVA) y una prueba a-posteriori de Tukey HSD (significación estadística α = 0,05). Las frecuencias de las anomalías cromosómicas observadas partieron desde 0% a 0,24% y el análisis estadístico de las frecuencias de anomalías cromosómicas reveló que no se detectaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en relación con los controles. Se concluye que la formulación antifúngica en base a solución saturada de sacarosa no evidenció una actividad genotóxica al evaluarse los resultados del presente trabajo empleando la prueba de Allium cepa.
