Optimization of positive controls and determination of genotoxic potential of the sample using reverse mutation test assays on bacterias
MARVANOVÁ, Lenka
The use of the Ames test to determine the mutagenic and therefore carcinogenic potential of chemicals is currently very popular due to its simplicity, speed and costeffectiveness. The aim of this work is to statistically evaluate the historical data of positive and negative controls obtained in the company MediTox s.r.o., based on this data, to design and execute the optimization of positive controls and to verify and apply the findings from the optimization in practice on several samples. Based on the evaluation of historical data of MediTox s.r.o. I concluded that it is necessary to optimize the work with E. coli. I performed the testing of three batches of positive controls, they were carried out without S9 and two batches were carried out with S9. According to the consistent results provided by the controls, it was possible to evaluate the results of the test. As emerged from three tested samples, it is appropriate to replace the E. coli Combo prepared from two bacteria strains by MediTox s.r.o. by a mixture of the above mentionned strains prepared by Xenometrix. It was not necessary to optimize the work with the other strains and positive controls.

Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology Student: Martina Klaučová Supervisor: prof. PharmDr. Petr Pávek, Ph.D. Consultant: PharmDr. Ivona Pávková, Ph.D. Diploma thesis title: Ames test in the drug development Background: Thesis objective is the determination of potential genotoxicity of newly developed drugs within primary testing and the introduction of the Ames microfluctuation test which can be used in common laboratory conditions. Methods: I used commercially supplied kit based on the principles of Ames test which detects reverse mutation through colour changes of the samples using bacterial strains S. typhimurium. At first I had to study literary sources and then I could design the procedures of the Ames microfluctuation test, preparation of the chemicals and storage of the strains which are optimal for all laboratories. Results: The drug samples T6445 and T6447 with 30 µM concentration tested by metabolic activation S9 on bacterial strain ST TA 98 show genotoxicity. The sample UOCHB1 with 30 µM concentration tested without activation shows possible genotoxicity on both strains ST TA 98 and ST TA 100. Other samples do not show any toxicity. I used 3 different procedures during the designation of assay. The most suitable version of the...
