Antioxidant activity in extracts fromLeptodictyum riparium(Bryophyta), stressed by heavy metals, heat shock, and salinity

Abstract: We studied the antioxidant activity of the moss Leptodictyum riparium stressed with lead, cadmium, heat shock, and salinity. The acetonic extracts of the moss were tested for antioxidant activity on human whole blood leukocytes by a chemiluminescence (CL) assay. Stresses induced a significant increase of CL inhibition. Among the different stresses, heavy metals were the strongest enhancers of antioxidant activity. The different stresses induced antioxidant activity according the following scale: Cd 4 Pb 4 sali… Show more

“…Encina et al 2012;Kalavrouziotis & Koukoulakis 2012). Many researches showed that under drought stress, the activity of anti-oxidative enzymes changes dramatically in seedlings and the MDA content strongly increased, showing that insufficient water supply caused significant adverse effects on seedling growth and development (Guo et al 2007;Shao et al 2008;Chao et al 2010;Basile et al 2011;Doganlar & Atmaca 2011;Ippolito et al 2011;Manchanda & Garg 2011;Fellet et al 2012;Kalavrouziotis & Koukoulakis 2012;Minutolo et al 2012;Rahman et al 2012;Song et al 2012Song et al , 2013. It has been pointed out through numerous studies (Aganchich et al 2007;Ephrath et al 2011;Guan et al 2011;Cheng et al 2012;Encina et al 2012;Kalavrouziotis & Koukoulakis 2012;Garg & Bhandari 2013;Minggagud & Yang 2013) that in many crops, heavy metal and drought stress cause changes in the secretion of organic acids such as EGTA and SA.…”

“…In recent years, it has become clear that heavy metal ions (especially divalent ions) exert striking toxic effects on plant growth and seedling development (Shao et al 2008;Manchanda & Garg 2011;Radoglou et al 2011;Xiao et al 2011;Minutolo et al 2012;Rahman et al 2012;Song et al 2012Song et al , 2013 Guo et al 2007;Shao et al 2008;Chao et al 2010;Bajguz 2011;Baldantoni et al 2011;Basile et al 2011;Doganlar & Atmaca 2011;Ippolito et al 2011;Manchanda & Garg 2011;Xiao et al 2011;Fellet et T P 2 T P 3 T P 4 T P 5 T P 6 T P 7 T P 8 T P 9 T P 1 0 T P 1 1 T P 1 2 T 0 ( C K ) T P 1 T P 2 T P 3 T P 4 T P 5 T P 6 T P 7 T P 8 T P 9 T P 1 0 T P 1 1 T P 1 2 T 0 ( C K ) T P 1 T P 2 T P 3 T P 4 T P 5 T P 6 T P 7 T P 8 T P 9 T P 1 0 T P 1 1 T P 1 2 T 0 ( C K ) T P 1 T P 2 T P 3 T P 4 T P 5 T P 6 T P 7 T P 8 T P 9 T P 1 0 T P 1 1 T P 1 2 The effects of EGTA and SA on MDA contents in seedling leaves under PEG treatments.

“…Processes in the soil and the presence of substances that are very important for plants dictate product properties and fertility of the soil [4]. Pollution of the soil by heavy metals, i.e., knowledge of the mechanism of adoption, distribution, metabolism, and accumulation in plants is of great importance [5,6]. Plants react differently to elevated metal concentrations.…”
