Cadmium toxicity on the freshwater microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii Gerloff: Biosynthesis of thiol compounds
(SETAC-Press (Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry), 2010-09)
Cadmium (Cd) toxicity and production of different thiols (phytochelatins, glutathione, γ-Glu-Cys and cysteine) were studied in the microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii exposed to different concentrations of this metal (1, 2, ...
Atrazine induced changes in elemental and biochemical composition and nitrate reductase activity in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Herbicides play an important role in agricultural practices but the introduction of these compounds into the aquatic environment can have severe consequences for non-target organisms such as microalgae. The ubiquitous green ...
Sulphate, more than a nutrient, protects the microalga Chlamydomonas moewusii from cadmium toxicity
(Elsevier, 2014-03)
Sulphur is an essential macroelement that plays important roles in living organisms. The thiol rich sulphur compounds, such as cysteine, γ-Glu–Cys, glutathione and phytochelatins participate in the tolerance mechanisms ...
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 ...
Toxicity induced by three antibiotics commonly used in aquaculture on the marine microalga Tetraselmis suecica (Kylin) Butch
(Elsevier, 2014-10)
Aquaculture facilities are a potential source of antibiotics to the aquatic ecosystems. The presence of these compounds in the environment may have deleterious effects on non-target aquatic organisms such as microalgae, ...
