Genotoxic Activity of Secondary Metabolites of Teucrium Species

Book Review: Teucrium Species: Biology and Applications; Stanković, M., Ed.; Springer Nature: Cham, Switzerland, 2020; ISBN: 978-3-030-52158-5

“…To promote the safe use of some species, these side effects and precautions are fully detailed [ 8 ]. Antimutagenic properties possibly related to their high concentration of polyphenolic compounds are also fully described [ 9 ]. Interestingly, some investigated Teucrium species may have a genotoxic effect at high concentrations but showed a protective effect when combined with known mutagenics at the same concentrations.…”
