Sub Lethal Effects of Cypermethrin and Oxyfluorfen on Stress Enzyme Activities of Earthworm Species, Eisenia foetida
Present study aims to assess the effect of Sublethal dose of the commercial formulations of Cypermethrin (insecticide) and Oxyfluorfen (herbicide). Laboratory study was conducted in a natural Soil and Cow Dung in order to measure effect of these chemicals on activities of stress enzymes viz., Glutathione, Catalase (CAT) and LPO/MDA for a period of 90 days. The activity of Glutathione and CAT wa...
متن کامل1H NMR-Based Metabolomic Analysis of Sub-Lethal Perfluorooctane Sulfonate Exposure to the Earthworm, Eisenia fetida, in Soil
1H NMR-based metabolomics was used to measure the response of Eisenia fetida earthworms after exposure to sub-lethal concentrations of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) in soil. Earthworms were exposed to a range of PFOS concentrations (five, 10, 25, 50, 100 or 150 mg/kg) for two, seven and fourteen days. Earthworm tissues were extracted and analyzed by 1H NMR. Multivariate statistical analysis ...
متن کاملToxicity and bioaccumulation of ethofumesate enantiomers in earthworm Eisenia fetida.
Earthworms represent an important food source for many vertebrates and as a result, predators may encounter toxic effects via the food chain from consumption of contaminated worms. Therefore, including an assessment of xenobiotic to worms in risk assessment procedures is advisable. Here we studied the acute toxicity, bioaccumulation and elimination of ethofumesate enantiomers in earthworm, Eise...
متن کاملEffects of acute gamma radiation on the reproductive ability of the earthworm Eisenia fetida.
Earthworms are the most suitable biological indicators of radioactive pollution because they are the parts of nutritional webs, and are present in relatively high numbers. Four months old Eisenia fetida were exposed to different doses of gamma radiation, namely 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 & 60 Gy to study the effects of radiation on different reproductive parameters. The ...
متن کاملP-133: Effects of Dietary Earthworm (Eisenia Fetida) Meal and Ethanolic Extract
Background: Avian spermatozoa are characterized by high proportions of poly unsaturated fatty acid, associated with increased susceptibility to Reactive Oxygen Species and lipid peroxidation. Recent advances in poultry reproduction have focused on the potential of Reactive Oxygen Species as one of the prime mediators of infertility. Oxidative stress is the result of imbalance between the Reacti...
