Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the toxicological safety of Shanze weight-reducing food in order to provide some toxicological data for its application. Methods According to the national standard of safety evaluation, the following experiments of acute toxicity test through mouth in rats, the genetic toxicity test, thirty days feeding test and teratogenicity test in mice were performed. Results LD 50 was more than 20.0 g?kg -1, equivalent to 467 times of the recommended dosage, in acute toxicity test through mouth in both male and female rats, which fell into the scale of non-toxicity. Under the dosage range of 1.05 g?kg -1 to 4.20 g?kg -1, equivalent to 100 times of the recommended, the negative results were observed in the genetic toxicity test of micronucleus test of bone marrow cells, sperm shape abnormality test in mice and the Ames test. The negative impacts on the growth, development, hematology, biochemistry, histology and the ratio of organ to whole body were not found on the experimental rats of thirty days feeding. Under the same dosage range, no teratogenic effects were found in the experiments of teratogenicity test. Conclusions Shanze can be used as a kind of health weight-reducing food with toxicological safety under the experimental dosage range of 1.05 g?kg -1 to 4.20 g?kg -1.
