Short Communication DAMAGE TO THE ERYTHROCYTE MEMBRANE CAUSED BY CHLOROPHENOXYACETIC HERBICIDES
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied the damage caused to erythrocyte membranes by chlorophenoxyacetic herbicides. An increase in haemolysis was observed. The compounds investigated caused lipid bilayer damage by lipid peroxidation, as well as an increase in membrane fluidity at the 16 carbon atom of fatty acids was observed. Metabolites caused damage to membrane proteins – the free SH group content was increased. Higher toxicity of metabolites compared to basic compounds was observed.

متن کاملThe combined effects of UV-B radiation and herbicides on photosynthesis, antioxidant enzymes and DNA damage in two bloom-forming cyanobacteria.
In this study, we investigated the combined effects of UV-B irradiation and herbicides (glyphosate, GPS; 2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, MCPA-Na; 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea, DCMU) and the antioxidant (ascorbic acid, ASC) on photosynthesis, antioxidant enzymes and DNA damage in two bloom-forming cyanobacteria, Anabaena sp. and Microcystis viridis. UV-B irradiance increased reac...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for Phenoxyacetic Acids
2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (2-MPA), 2-methyl-4-chlorophenxyacetic acid (MCPA) and 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA) were imprinted to investigate the cross-selectivities of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). The result indicates that 2-MPA, which is similar in shape, size and functionality with phenoxyacetic herbicides, are suitable to be used as a suitable template to prepare the MIPs for...
متن کاملEffect of sulfonylurea herbicides residues on growth and yield of sunflower in rotation with wheat
To evaluate the effect of residue of sulfonylurea herbicides and wheat residues on the growth and yield of sunflower, a split factorial experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four replications at the College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran. The treatments included with and without wheat residues from the tested farm as the main plots, a...
متن کاملResponse of Fenugreek plants to short-term salinity stress in relation to lipid peroxidation, antioxidant activity and protein content
To investigate the effect of salinity stress on membrane stability index, membrane lipid peroxidation, catalase activity and protein content of Fenugreek (Trigonellafoenum) an experiment with five levels of short-term salinity stress (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM) was carried out at the laboratory of agriculture faculty of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Iran. The treatments were ar...
