Abstract: BACKGROUND & AIM: To study the acute toxicity and genetic toxicity of DMDBS. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Acute toxicity test of mice,Ames test,micronucleus test of bone marrow PCE cell in mice, sperm shape abnormality test of mice. RESULTS:DMDBS was a substance with no toxicity according to the acute toxicity. The results of genetic toxicity tests were all negative,including Ames test, micronucleus test and sperm shape abnormality test. CONCLUSION: DMDBS was a substance with no toxicity and had no genetic toxicity in this test.

Key words: enhancement of clarified polypropylene, genetic toxicity, Ames test, micronucleus test, sperm shape abnormality test
