Potential use of flow cytometry in toxicity studies with microalgae
(2000-03)
[Abstract]Cytotoxic effects of aquatic pollutants on microalgae are very heterogeneous, and they are influenced by environmental conditions and the test species. Stress produced by copper or paraquat addition to the culture ...
Flow cytometric analysis of the encystment process induced by paraquat exposure in Haematococcus pluvialis (Chlorophyceae)
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
The freshwater microalga Haematococcus pluvialis exhibits a unique morphological response to environmental stress, accumulating carotenoid pigment during encystment. The complexity of characterizing the different cell ...
Toxic action of copper on the membrane system of a marine diatom measured by flow cytometry
(WILEY-Liss, 1996-09)
Flow cytometric measurements were used to investigate the toxic action of copper on some Phaeodactylum tricornutum membrane systems. Throughout the time of metal exposure, the percentage of viable cells decreased as copper ...
Acute effects of a prooxidant herbicide on the microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: Screening cytotoxicity and genotoxicity endpoints
(Elsevier, 2015-08)
Since recent evidence has demonstrated that many types of chemicals exhibit oxidative and/or genotoxic potential on living organisms, reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and DNA damage are currently the best accepted ...
