Antimutagenic activity of spearmint

The antimutagenic activity of spearmint (Mentha spicata), a popular food flavoring agent, was studied in the Salmonella assay. Spearmint leaves were brewed in hot water for 5 min at concentrations up to 5% (w/v), and the water extracts were tested against the direct‐acting mutagens 4‐nitro‐1,2‐pheny...
