Oxidative Response and Micronucleus Centromere Assay in HEp-2 Cells Exposed to Fungicide Iprodione
(American Chemical Society, 2019-04)
The fungicide agents are a key component in the fruits and vegetables production. The Iprodione residues are one of the pesticide more frequently found in food products. The available data about the cytotoxicity of iprodione ...
Micronucleus test in fish from a pampasic pond (Argentina): an estimation of the presence of genotoxic compounds
(Begell House, 2001-11)
The Los Padres pond is one of the commonly shallow, polymictic lakes from the so-called depressed Pampa (Argentina). Its watershed includes one affluent, named Los Padres creek, which flows through horticultural lands ...
Recovery of normal cytogenetic records in mussels after cessation of pollutant effluents in Puerto Madryn (Patagonia, Argentina)
(Springer, 2009-07)
The capacity of coast recovering after interruption of pollution sources has been explored employing mussels as biomarkers. In an area polluted by sewage sludge in Puerto Madryn (Argentina), abnormally high cytogenetic ...
Use of Lithobates catesbeianus tadpoles in a multiple biomarker approach for the assessment of water quality of the Reconquista River (Argentina)
(Springer, 2013-10)
The water quality of the Reconquista River (Argentina) water was monitored between 2009 and 2010 by means of a multiparametric approach. This periurban river is affected by agricultural, urban, and industrial discharges. ...
Uptake, distribution in different tissues, and genotoxicity of imidacloprid in the freshwater fish Australoheros facetus
(Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2017-03)
The neonicotinoid imidacloprid is under re-evaluation by regulatory agencies because of the poor current information available regarding its potential effects. One of the goals of the present study was to determine ...
Genotoxicity of glyphosate assessed by the comet assay and cytogenetic tests
(Elsevier Science, 2009-07)
It was evaluated the genotoxicity of glyphosate which up to now has heterogeneous results. The comet assay was performed in Hep-2 cells. The level of DNA damage in the control group (5.42 ± 1.83 arbitrary units) for tail ...
Imidacloprid Causes DNA Damage in Fish: Clastogenesis as a Mechanism of Genotoxicity
(Springer, 2018-04)
Neonicotinoids are one of the most widely used insecticides in the world. DNA damage is considered an early biological effect which could lead to reproductive and carcinogenic effects. The present study aimed to evaluate ...
A combination of the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome assay and centromeric identification for evaluation of the genotoxicity of dicamba
(Elsevier Ireland, 2011-12)
The purpose of this study was to further investigate the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of dicamba and Banvel® employing the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMN-cyt) assay estimated by the analysis of the nuclear ...
Biomonitoring of the hematological, biochemical and genotoxic effects of the mixture cypermethrin plus chlorpyrifos applications in bovines
(Elsevier, 2020-07)
External antiparasitic agents applied in bovine production represent a risk to consumers of meat products, especially if the conditions of their use are not strictly respected. The post-mortem control of residues in meat ...
