Antioxidant Response in Duckweed After Exposure to Secondary Effluent from Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant, Elazığ, Turkey

Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the effluent of Elazig Municipality Wastewater Treatment Plant on the oxidative defense capacity of aquatic plants (Lemna minor L. and Lemna gibba L.). For this purpose, malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG), vitamin A (retinol), vitamin E (α-tocopherol), and vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) levels were determined by the HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) in the control groups and the groups adapting to reactors fed with di… Show more

“…It is well known that duckweed accumulates heavy metals [21], including Cd [2,22]. Its physiological response to heavy metal stress [23] has been extensively studied in recent years, and researchers have started to examine its defence mechanisms against heavy metal toxicity [24]. However, relatively few studies have examined the correlation between the heavy metal toxicity (which results from the chemical forms) and antioxidant enzymatic activity in duckweed.…”

“…GSH is an important molecule in oxidative stress (Miteva et al, 2010). Tatar et al (2017) reported that, the GSH and GSSG levels in L. minor L. were found high in adapted group compared to the control group (p<0.05). In our study, the highest GSH and GST activities were determined after 0.5 mM SA + 300 ppm ER LFB groups at 7th day (Fig 7,8).…”
