C従来の技術
産業の大幅でかつ急速な発展が行なわれているなかで、
化学工業もこの動向に追随して急成長を行なっているが
、このような情勢に伴って大気汚染、水質汚濁が進行し
、また、催奇形性、筋原性、変異原性の要因が増加する
など、環境は多種多様な化学物質に汚染されている。C.With the significant and rapid development of traditional technology industries,
The chemical industry is following this trend and is rapidly growing, but with this situation, air pollution and water pollution are progressing, and teratogenic, myogenic, and mutagenic factors are increasing. The environment is contaminated with a wide variety of chemicals.
これらの原因を構成する化学物質は、単にこれらを廃棄
・焼却処理を行なう場面に防護対策を実施するのみでは
足りず、大気中での化学反応によっても新たな有害物質
が発生し、これらによる汚染も無視できない現状にあり
、環境保全の観点からも有害物質に対するより確かな対
策が必要とされている。It is not enough to simply implement protective measures when disposing of or incinerating the chemical substances that are responsible for these substances; chemical reactions in the atmosphere also generate new hazardous substances, which can cause pollution. This situation cannot be ignored, and more reliable measures against harmful substances are needed from the perspective of environmental conservation.
環境保全の作業は、原則として、
「−一一一一一−1
調査 −評価 −対策
の閉回路が確実に機能すれば必要な安全対策が採られて
いるということができる。As a general rule, environmental conservation work can be said to have taken the necessary safety measures if the closed circuit of ``11111-1 Investigation - Evaluation - Countermeasures'' functions reliably.
環境保全の作業を効率よく推進し、莞全に達成させるた
めには、これらの諸作業、なかんずく、調査や評価作業
が正確かつ迅速に行なわれることが必要である。In order to efficiently promote environmental conservation work and achieve it in Guanquan, it is necessary that these works, especially surveys and evaluations, be carried out accurately and promptly.

ているが、これら有害物質を簡易かつ高感度に検出する
手法が開発されていないため、環境保全対策の第1段階
である調査が十分行なえず、正確な評価や対策も十分た
てられない現状にある。On the other hand, from the perspective of biological effects, mutagens, promoters, and immunomodulators are considered to be environmentally hazardous substances that will become increasingly important to deal with in the future. In addition, since a highly sensitive detection method has not been developed, the first stage of environmental conservation measures, such as surveys, cannot be conducted sufficiently, and accurate evaluations and countermeasures cannot be taken.

正確な調査・評価手法を確立することが必要である。D. Problems to be solved by the invention In order to overcome this current situation, it is necessary to develop a highly sensitive, simple and rapid method for detecting mutagens, promoters, and immunomodulators, and to detect these harmful substances in the environment. It is necessary to establish accurate survey and evaluation methods.
ところで、従来行なわれていた方法によれば、以下に述
べるような問題点を有しているものであった。However, the conventional methods have the following problems.
問題点 1
大気浮遊粉塵や大気汚染源からの放出物などには、種々
の発癌関連物質が含まれており、これらのモニタリング
や検出にエイムズ(Ames)法またはその変法を用い
た復帰突然変異試験が広く使用されている。Problem 1: Airborne dust and emissions from air pollution sources contain various cancer-related substances, and the Ames method or its modified methods should be used in reverse mutation tests to monitor and detect these substances. is widely used.
ところで、国際症研究機関(IARC)の特別委員会は
、1982年にIARCモノグラフ1〜29@に集録さ
れた化学物質等のヒトに対する発癌性の評価に短期テス
トの結果も考慮に入れることを決定した。By the way, in 1982, a special committee of the International Agency for Research on Diseases (IARC) recommended that results of short-term tests should be taken into consideration when evaluating the carcinogenicity of chemical substances to humans, which were collected in IARC Monographs 1-29@. Decided.
発癌性の予測に関して十分な証拠のある短期テストとは
、
rDNA傷害、突然変異、染色体異常の3種のカテゴリ
ーに属する短期テストのうち、少なくともカテゴリーの
異なる2種以上のテストを用いて、3つ以上の陽性結果
となるか否かを判定するものである。同一カテゴリーに
属するテストでの2つの陽性結果を評価に用いるときは
、異なる生物系を用いた実験での結果でなければならな
い」としている。Short-term tests with sufficient evidence for predicting carcinogenicity are defined as short-term tests that have sufficient evidence to predict carcinogenicity. This is to determine whether or not the above result is positive. "When two positive results from tests in the same category are used in an evaluation, they must be from experiments using different biological systems."
このようなIARCの短期テストに対する評価基準を考
慮に入れると、大気浮遊粉塵などに含まれる発癌関連物
質をモニタリングするためには、従来の突然変異試験の
ほかにDNA傷害や染色体異常についての短期テストも
用いる。ことが望ましい。Taking into account IARC's evaluation criteria for short-term tests, in addition to conventional mutation tests, short-term tests for DNA damage and chromosomal aberrations are necessary to monitor carcinogenic substances contained in airborne dust. Also used. This is desirable.
