Toxicological Evaluation

Material and Method

1.1 Sample£ºHealthin tea offered by Chongqing Healthin Health Food Research Institute. Treatment of sample: Pour boiling water into 200g sample tea (water should be 20 times of sample); filter after 45 minutes and pick up the liquid; pour the deposit again and then combine the two liquid. Condense the liquid to 100ml. This is the formulated concentrate of the test. £¨1ml¡Ö2g Healthin tea£©

1.2 Tested animal: the Grade I Kunming Mouse and the SD Rat are all provided by Sichuan Antibacterial Industry Research Institute of the State Medical Administration.

1.3 The acute per os test for both rats and mice: According to the method of Horn, male and female are tested respectively. Kunming mouse weighs 20-24g and SD rat weighs 180g-220g. Each dosage team consists five mice and rats respectively. The tested dosage is 4.0,8.6,18.6 and 40g/kg respectively. Observe for two weeks and record the animal's toxic reaction and death.

1.4 Mouse erythrocyte micronucleus test: Kunming Mouse (Weighs 25-32g) is classified into five teams random. Ten mice each team, half are male and half are female. Three Healthin test teams with the dosage of 5.0¡¢10.0¡¢20.0g/kg.bw respectively. One female control group (distilled water£© and one male control group (cyclophosphamide: 40mg/kg.bw). The tested animals were fed twice within 0-24 hours and by the 30th hours, the mice were killed. Take some femoral medulla, dye with 10%Giemsa liquid and then observe under oil immersion lens. Count and record cells with microkernel. Figure the rate of microkernel and analyze the difference of the rate of microkernel between the test team and the control group.

1. 530d Feeding Experiment£ºRandom classified the weaned SD rats (male rats weigh 125¡À20g ) into four groups, 20 rats each group with half of the female rats and half of the male rats. Each test team fed the rats at the dosage of 5.0¡¢10.0¡¢20.0g/kg respectively. In the other control group, £¨The feeding dosage is 0£©. After the experiment, carry out the serological check and histopathological check.

2 Conclusion

2.1 Acute toxicity test£ºmouse's per os acute toxicity(see chart I)

As the chart shown, mouse and rate has the same testing result in per os acute toxicity test. After fed with Healthin Preservation Tea, none of the testing team is toxic. There was no animal dead within two weeks. That is to say, acute per os LD50 of Healthin Preservation Tea to both mouse and the rat are more than 40g/kg.bw. So, the sample tea is innocuous.

From Chart 3, we can draw a conclusion that the rate of microkernel of positive control group is obviously higher than the negative control group £¨P<0.01£©.While, the groups with the Healthin Preservation Tea is lower than the negative ones. That is, the result of the test is negative.

2.3 30d Feeding Experiment

In the course of the emperiment, no abnomity or toxicosis or death of the tested animals happened.
