Abstract
⺠Insecticides metabolized by plants were evaluated in Ames test and human cells. ⺠Plant metabolites of organophosphorus insecticides were mutagenic in TA98 strain. ⺠A decrease in cytotoxicity in human cells was obtained with plant metabolites. ⺠A “protecting effect” of plant metabolism was observed in human cells.
