|
An antimutagenic agent is a substance that inhibits mutations or act against mutagens. Mutation is a permanent transmissible change in the genetic material, usually in a single gene. Mutagens are any agents (physical or environmental) that can induce a genetic mutation or can increase the rate of mutation.
