Cytotoxic effects of pesticides on microalgae determined by flow cytometry
(Nova Science Publishers, 2009)
As much as ca. 99.7% of the applied load of pesticides is dispersed in the environment, not reaching the target pests. In this way, pesticides enter into aquatic ecosystems from agricultural runoff or leaching and, as a ...
Astaxanthin Production in Cysts and Vegetative Cells of the Microalga Haematococcus Pluvialis Flotow
(Nova Science Publishers, 2012)
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 ...
Response of the marine microalga Dunaliella tertiolecta (Chlorophyceae) to copper toxicity in short time experiments
(Springer, 1995-02)
Heavy metals are introduced into aquatic ecosystems from industrial wastes, agricultural runoff and mining activities. The toxicity of heavy metal ions in solution to microalgae is well known. The essentiality and toxicity ...
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 ...
