Abstract: |
Acute toxicity test, genetic toxicity tests and sub-acute toxicity test of fresh pressed oil-tea camellia seed oil were performed to evaluate its safety. The results showed that acute toxicity test in rats demonstrated actual non-toxicity of fresh pressed oil-tea camellia seed due to its LD50 higher than 10 000 mg/kg. The results of genotoxicity tests (Ames test, mouse bone marrow cells micronucleus test and mammalian cell chromosome aberration test in vitro) were negative. No abnormal changes of animal health, biochemical indexes of blood and organ morphology were found in the 28 d feeding test of rats.The fresh pressed oil-tea camellia seed oil had no acute toxicity, genetic toxicity and sub-acute toxicity, so it had high edible safety. |
