Abstract: In experiments with Escherichia coli B/r WP2(trpE-), mice marrow cells and human lymphocytes the antimutagenic activity of an extract from Zizyphus mill was performed. The extract was tested separately and in mixture with Triticum aestivum. In experiments with different treatment schemes it has been established that the extract from wheat sprouts added to an antimutagenic preparation from Zizyphus mill intensifies the genoprotective properties of the Zizyphus mill extract.
