Abstract
⺠Monoterpenes reduce UV/4NQO mutagenesis in NER+, but not in NERâ strain of Escherichia coli. ⺠Monoterpenes increase recombination and affect UV-induced SOS response. ⺠High doses of monoterpenes induce genotoxic effect in mammalian cells. ⺠Low doses of monoterpenes are antigenotoxic against 4NQO in mammalian cells. ⺠Low doses of monoterpenes stimulate DNA repair and act as bioantimutagens.
