Forscher der Universität Gießen haben eine neue Testmethode entwickelt, um Mutagene in Lebensmitteln und Kosmetika nachzuweisen. Das Verfahren identifiziert Substanzen, die das Erbgut verändern können, auch wenn deren chemische Struktur unbekannt ist. Die Ergebnisse bestätigen frühere Erkenntnisse über Risiken von rotem Fleisch und Raucharomen, was das EU-Verbot von Raucharomen in bestimmten Lebensmitteln unterstützt. Auch in Pflegeprodukten wurden potenziell erbgutverändernde Substanzen gefunden, die der Bakterienflora der Haut schaden könnten. Die neue Methode soll helfen, Schadstoffe zu identifizieren, zu reduzieren und deren Herkunft aufzuklären, um Alltagsprodukte sicherer zu machen.
