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 to evaluate physiological alterations in herbicide-exposed Chlamydomonas moewusii cells
(Springer, 2012-03)
Investigation of herbicide toxicology in non-target aquatic primary producers such as microalgae is of great importance from an ecological point of view. In order to study the toxicity of the widely used herbicide paraquat ...
Characterization of cell response in Chlamydomonas moewusiicultures exposed to the herbicide paraquat: Induction of chlorosis
(2011-03)
[Abstract] The use of herbicides constitutes the principal method of weed control, but the introduction of these compounds into the aquatic environment can provoke severe consequences for non-target organisms such as ...
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 ...
