Genotoxicity of Soil
A review of the literature published on the genotoxicity of soil is presented in this report. Subheadings of the report include outlines of genotoxicity assays that have been used to examine the soil samples and methods commonly used to prepare soil samples for genotoxicity assay, and a review of the genotoxicity of soil. Soil has been grouped according to potential sources of pollution, e.g. i...
متن کاملGenotoxicity of pesticide waste contaminated soil and its leachate.
OBJECTIVE Improper land disposal of hazardous waste can result in leaching of hazardous constituents which may contaminate ground and surface water leading to adverse impact on human health and environment consequences. The present study utilized mammalian cell culture for the genotoxicity assessment of waste and its leachate. METHODS Genotoxic potential and chemical analysis of pesticide der...
متن کاملAssessment 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 کاملAllium cepa Root Chromosomal Aberration Assay: An Efficient Test System for Evaluating Genotoxicity of Agricultural Soil
Agricultural soils are increasingly becoming sinks for wide number of hazardous contaminants which ultimately result in pollution. Plant bioassays, because of their sensitivity and affordability, have been recommended as first-tier assays which enable the detection of contaminants. The present study involves genotoxicity of four soil samples collected from different regions of Amritsar employin...
متن کاملNew direct contact approach to evaluate soil genotoxicity using the Vicia faba micronucleus test.
A method to assess micronucleus (MN) induction in Vicia faba roots by direct contact exposure to a solid matrix was developed. The procedure comprised a 5-d germination period, as in the well-known method using aqueous extracts. However, the seeds were here sown directly into the test soil whereas a culture period is necessary before exposing seedlings to a liquid medium. One soil under forest ...
