Glutathione biosynthesis plays an important role against 4-tert-octylphenol-induced oxidative stress in Ceratophyllum demersum.

Only registered users can translate articles

4-tert-octylphenol (OP) is a persistent environmental pollutant with an endocrine-disrupting property. In the present study, we examined the effect of various concentrations of OP (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 3 mg L-1) applied to an aquatic plant, the submersed macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum. The toxic

Effects of 3-chlorobiphenyl on photosynthetic oxygen production, glutathione content and detoxication enzymes in the aquatic macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum.

Only registered users can translate articles

Organic contaminants of environmental concern such as polychlorinated biphenyls have dispersed widely throughout the ecosystems and accumulate in living organisms, and a variety of adverse biological effects have been reported. In this study, we investigated the effects of 3-chlorobiphenyl in the

Identification of an enzymatically formed glutathione conjugate of the cyanobacterial hepatotoxin microcystin-LR: the first step of detoxication.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cyanobacterial toxins have adverse effects on mammals, birds and fish and are being increasingly recognised as a potent stress factor and health hazard factor in aquatic ecosystems. Microcystins, cyclic heptapeptides and a main group of the cyanotoxins are mainly retained within the producer cells

Modulation of cadmium-induced oxidative stress in Ceratophyllum demersum by zinc involves ascorbate-glutathione cycle and glutathione metabolism.

To understand the interaction between Zn, an essential micronutrient and Cd, a non-essential element, Cd-10 microM and Zn supplemented (10, 50, 100, and 200 microM) Cd 10 microM treated Ceratophyllum demersum L. (Coontail), a free floating freshwater macrophyte was chosen for the study. Cadmium at

Lead detoxification by coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) involves induction of phytochelatins and antioxidant system in response to its accumulation.

Coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) plants when exposed to various concentrations of Pb (1-100microM) for 1-7days, exhibited both phytotoxic and tolerance responses. The specific responses were function of concentration and duration. Plants accumulated 1748mugPbg(-1) dw after 7d which reflected its

Bioaccumulation and oxidative stress in submerged macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum L. upon exposure to pyrene.

Only registered users can translate articles

Laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate pyrene bioaccumulation and its consequent biological responses in submerged macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum. Plants were exposed to different levels (0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.07, 0.1 mg/L) of pyrene for 10 days, and the pyrene content, and total

Response of antioxidant enzymes in coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) plants under cadmium stress.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cadmium (Cd) contamination of aquatic systems is of major concern since it is a nonessential element and hampers plant growth upon accumulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the Cd accumulation behavior of coontail plant, Ceratophyllum demersum L., toxicity induced and response of the

Speciation and distribution of arsenic in the nonhyperaccumulator macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum.

Only registered users can translate articles

Although arsenic (As) is a common pollutant worldwide, many questions about As metabolism in nonhyperaccumulator plants remain. Concentration- and tissue-dependent speciation and distribution of As was analyzed in the aquatic plant Ceratophyllum demersum to understand As metabolism in

Promotion of oxidative stress in the aquatic macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum during biotransformation of the cyanobacterial toxin microcystin-LR.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cyanobacterial toxins have been shown to have adverse effects on mammals, birds and fish and are therefore being increasingly recognised as a potent stress and health hazard factor in aquatic ecosystems. Microcystins, which are cyclic heptapeptides and a main group of the cyanotoxins, are mainly

Ceratophyllum demersum L. and Potamogeton alpinus Balb. from Iset' river, Ural region, Russia differ in adaptive strategies to heavy metals exposure--a comparative study.

We examined the uptake of five heavy metals (Cu, Fe, Ni, Zn, and Mn) in Ceratophyllum demersum L. (hornwort) and Potamogeton alpinus Balb. (pondweed) from Iset' river, Ural region, Russia. This study was conducted in a territory that is highly urbanized where the surface waters are contaminated by a

Cadmium-induced toxicity reversal by zinc in Ceratophyllum demersum L. (a free floating aquatic macrophyte) together with exogenous supplements of amino- and organic acids.

Only registered users can translate articles

This paper analyzes the detoxification mechanisms adopted by amino- and organic acids to alleviate Cd toxicity. In addition, with our published data on Zn-Cd interactions, the influence of Zn (200 microM) supplements on the detoxification mechanisms of amino- and organic acids have also been

The effect of β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) on oxidative stress response enzymes of the macrophyte Ceratophyllum demersum.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cyanobacteria are known to produce bioactive secondary metabolites such as hepatotoxins, cytotoxins and neurotoxins. The newly recognized neurotoxin β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) is a naturally occurring non-protein amino acid found in the majority of cyanobacterial genera tested. Evidence that

Phragmites australis and Quercus robur leaf extracts affect antioxidative system and photosynthesis of Ceratophyllum demersum.

Only registered users can translate articles

During senescence, leaves are deposited on aquatic bodies and decay under water releasing chemical substances that might exert physiological stress to aquatic organisms. Leaf litter alone contributes 30% of the total dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in streams. We investigated the impact of leaves

Time dependent uptake, bioaccumulation and biotransformation of cell free crude extract microcystins from Lake Amatitlán, Guatemala by Ceratophyllum demersum, Egeria densa and Hydrilla verticillata.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recent studies evidence that macrophytes can uptake and bioaccumulate microcystins (MC) from contaminated environments, suggesting their use in phytoremediation. In the present study Ceratophyllum demersum, Egeria densa and Hydrilla verticillata were exposed to cell free crude extracts (CE)

Antioxidative response of the three macrophytes Ceratophyllum demersum, Egeria densa, and Hydrilla verticillata to a time dependent exposure of cell-free crude extracts containing three microcystins from cyanobacterial blooms of Lake Amatitlán, Guatemala.

Microcystins (MCs) produced by cyanobacteria in natural environments are a potential risk to the integrity of ecosystems. In this study, the effects of cyanobacterial cell-free crude extracts from a Microcystis aeruginosa bloom containing three MC-congeners MC-LR, -RR, and -YR at environmental
