Abstract                                                      
                The ethyl acetate fraction of siling labuyo was found to be mutagenic and clastogenic. Thin layer chromatography on silica gel plates using chloroform and absolute ethanol (9:1) gave five spots. Only spot no. 5 was shown to be genotoxic as determined by the micronucleus test. The ultraviolet absorption spectrum, proton NMR spectrum, low resolution mass spectrum and HPLC data showed that spot no. 5 was not capsaicin. The mutagen in siling labuyo is not capsaicin, contrary to the claim in the literature. Further studies are necessary to determine the exact structure of spot no. 5.
