Abstract

To assess the toxicity, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity of polycarbonic acids containing cycloaliphatic fragments, a comprehensive approach was used, based on the application of test organisms (the unicellular green alga Chlorella vulgaris and onion Allium cepa). The polycarbonic acid compounds were evaluated at concentrations of 1.0, 0.1, 0.001, and 0.0001%. It was shown that the polyacids were not mutagenic in the Allium cepa based bioassay, but high concentrations of the compounds could lead to an increase in the mutation frequency of Chlorella vulgaris. These results justify the need for further research to comprehensively evaluate the safety and potential applicability of these compounds. The approach described here can be applied to obtain quick, cost-effective, and useful supplementary data on various types of toxicity in vitro for substances with potential biological activity.
