Popis: |
Recently, much attention has been given to the photogenotoxicity of bergamot oil with regard to its potential carcinogenic risk (Zajdela and Bisagni 1981); Cartwright and Walter 1983). Bergamot oil is widely used as a component in cosmetic formulae (sunscreen preparations, perfumes, eaux de toilette). Among its furocoumarin components, 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MOP) is the major photoactive agent (Ashwood-Smith et al. 1980). DNA photoreactivity of 5-MOP has been described in several in vitro biological systems, mainly yeasts (Averbeck et al. 1978) and bacterial and mammalian cell systems (Ashwood-Smith et al. 1982). |
