Assessment of the genotoxicity of quinolone and fluoroquinolones contaminated soil with the Vicia faba micronucleus test.
The genotoxicity of quinolone and fluroquinolones was assessed using the micronucleus (MN) test on Vicia faba roots by direct contact exposure to a solid matrix. Plants were exposed to quinolones (nalidixic acid) and fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin) alone or mixed with artificially contaminated soils. Four different concentrations of each of these antibiotics were tested (0.01,...
متن کاملAssessment of the genotoxicity of olive mill waste water (OMWW) with the Vicia faba micronucleus test.
The present study concerns the genotoxicity of olive mill waste water (OMWW) generated in mills producing olive oil in Morocco. The Vicia faba micronucleus test was used to evaluate the genotoxicity of OMWW and the six major phenolic compounds identified by HPLC in this effluent. Five dilutions of OMWW were tested: 0.1, 1, 5, 10 and 20%. Maleic hydrazide was used as a positive control. The resu...
متن کاملAssessment of municipal wastewater genotoxicity using the Ames fluctuation test, the SOS Chromotest and the mussel micronucleus test: a comparison
Municipal wastewaters may contain a variety of genotoxic compounds, including drugs or their metabolites, PAHs, etc. Bacterial genotoxicity assays use DNA impairment as end point while micronucleus tests, conducted on eucaryotes, assess chromosome aberrations. As relatively few comparative studies exist, in this study results of the micronucleus test using the painter’s mussel (Unio pictorum) a...
متن کاملAssessment of the genotoxicity of Cu and Zn in raw and anaerobically digested slurry with the Vicia faba micronucleus test.
Genotoxicity of Cu and Zn was assessed by use of the micronucleus (MN) test on Vicia faba roots. Plants were exposed to various leachates of raw and anaerobically digested pig slurry, with maximum total concentrations of 200microM Cu and 600microM Zn. The results indicated stabilisation of the organic matter during anaerobic digestion of the slurry and bioconversion of some phytotoxic organic c...
متن کاملAnti-Genotoxicity Evaluation of Cratoxylum Formosum Dyer Leaves by Comet Assay and Micronucleus Test
Cratoxylum formosum Dyer is the Thai vegetable which commonly consumed a fresh leaves. In this study, we extracted Cratoxylum formosum with water and tested the extract for genotoxicity and anti-genotoxicity effects. We carried out the experiment using micronucleus test and comet assay in TK6 cells. In micronucleus experiment, we used cytokinesis-block proliferation technique to stop cell divis...
