    The effect of Dimethoate on oxidative stress and antioxidant responses of Pontastacus leptodactylus; [El efecto del dimetoato sobre el estrés oxidativo y las respuestas antioxidantes de Pontastacus leptodactylus]

    Aydın, Ayşe Nur; Bulut, Hilal; Serdar, Osman

    Dimethoate (DMT) pesticide is one of the chemicals used to protect some agricultural areas from harmful organisms. DMT residues released directly or indirectly to the environment cause serious problems in nature. DMT residues mixed with the aquatic environment adversely affect aquatic organisms and this effect is carried to humans through the food chain. In this study, oxidative stress responses induced by DMT pesticide in Pontastacus leptodactylus were investigated. For this purpose, oxidative stress and antioxidant parameters Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), Glutathione (GSH), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) caused by dimethoate (DMT) pesticide in P. leptodactylus at 17.5, 35, and 70 mg·L-1 concentrations at 24 and 96 hours were investigated. Results were determined using ELISA kits. No significant difference was observed in GSH levels and SOD activities compared to control. Statistically significant differences were observed between decreases in CAT and GPx activities and increases in TBARS levels. SPSS 24.0 package program one–way ANOVA (Duncan 0.05) was used in the evaluation of biochemical analyzes. As a result, it was determined that DMT caused oxidative stress formation in P. leptodactylus and caused changes in enzyme activities.

    Determination of oxidative stress responses caused by aluminum oxide (γ-Al2O3 and α-Al2O3) nanoparticles in Gammarus pulex

    Serdar, Osman; Aydin, Ayşe Nur; Çimen, Isıl Canan Çiçek

    The rapid growth in the use of aluminum oxide nanoparticles (Al2O3 NPs) in various fields such as medicine, pharmacy, cosmetics industries and engineering, and the fact that these NPs and their wastes mix with the aquatic environment and damage the aquatic ecosystem, affect the organisms in the water, enter the food chain and reach humans is a major problem is cause for concern. The aim of this study is to investigate the oxidative stress caused by two separate forms of aluminum oxide, γ-Al2O3 and α-Al2O3, in Gammarus pulex, which is a good indicator species, with biochemical parameters. For this purpose, G. pulex was exposed to different concentrations (0, 10, 20, 40 ppm) of γ-Al2O3 and α-Al2O3 separately. The experiments were carried out for 24 and 96 h by creating 3 repeated experimental groups consisting of 4 groups. For biomarker analysis, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) activities and glutathione (GSH) and thiobarbituric acid (TBARS) levels were performed using an ELISA kit. As a result of the in experimental study, it was observed that both nanoparticles affected oxidative stress and antioxidant parameters after 96 h compared to the control group. Increases in SOD activity were observed, γ-Al2O3 caused a decrease in CAT activity at 24 h, and α- Al2O3 caused increases in CAT activity at 96 h. Decreases in GSH levels and increases in TBARS levels have been observed.

    Serdar, Osman; Yıldırım, Numan; Onder Erguven, Gokhan; Ketenalp, Zozan; Cikcikoglu Yildirim, Nuran; Durmus, Barbaros

    Bioremediation is one of the cheapest and easy method for biological treatment for most kind of industial wastewater. Bioremediation potential of the Phanerochaete chrysosporium for industrial wastewater from Industrial Zone Wastewater plant in Mardin, Turkey, was evaluated. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total organic carbon (TOC) reduction efficiencies of P. chrysoporium of on wastewater studied using biomarkers such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), Thiobarbituric Acid (TBARS) and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels in Dreissena polymorpha. The level of TBARS, a marker of lipid peroxidation was found to be high because of wastewater exposure after treatment. TBARS levels decreased (from 20.2 to 31.6 and from 20.8 to 37.5). GSH levels (from 52.3 to 15.9), CAT levels (from, 119.7 to 15.3 and from 91.1 to 13.4) SOD levels (from 3.8 to 0.9 and from 3.4 to 1.2) and GPX activity (from 177.2 to 104.4 and 174.2 to 100.5) decreased in the wastewater exposure groups during 24 and 96th hour compared to the control groups. GSH levels, CAT, SOD and GPX activity increased after treatment by P. chrysosporium. Results indicate that industrial wastewater caused oxidative stress in Dreissena polymorpha. The findings revealed that the highest removal efficiency for COD and TOC, at 86.3 % and 80.3 % respectively, occurred in the 1/20 diluted medium. P. chrysosporium has proven to be effective in the bioremediation of wastewater from the Industrial Zone Changes in biochemical parameters before and after bioremediation showed that antioxidant parameters such as CAT, SOD, GPx activities and GSH and TBARS levels can be used as biomarker to evaluate bioremediation efficiency.

    The effect of a glyphosate-based herbicide on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, oxidative stress, and antioxidant status in freshwater amphipod: Gammarus pulex (Crustacean)

    Pala, Ayşegül

    This study had determined the effect of glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH) on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme activity, oxidative stress, and antioxidant status in Gammarus pulex. Firstly, the 96-h LC50 value of glyphosate on G. pulex was determined and calculated as 403 μg/L. Subsequently, the organisms were exposed to sub-lethal concentrations (10, 20, and 40 μg/L) of the determined GHB for 24 and 96 h. The samples were taken from control and GBH-treated groups at 24 and 96 h of study and analysed to determine the malondialdehyde (MDA) and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels, the AChE, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme activities. In the G. pulex exposed to GBH for 24 and 96 h, the MDA level increased significantly (p < 0.05). The GSH level, the AChE, the CAT, and the GPx activities decreased compared with the control group (p < 0.05). G. pulex exposure to GBH for 24 h showed a temporary reduction in the SOD. GBH exposure led to oxidative stress in the G. pulex as well as affected the cholinergic system of the organism. These results indicated that the parameters measured may be important indicators of herbicide contamination in G. pulex.

    Effects of cypermethrin on antioxidant status, oxidative stress biomarkers, behavior, and mortality in the freshwater mussel Unio elongatulus eucirrus

    Köprücü, Kenan; Yonar, Serpil Mise; Seker, Engin

    In this study, the effects of cypermethrin on antioxidant status, oxidative stress biomarkers, behavior, and mortality in the freshwater mussel Unto elongatulus eucirrus were examined. Cypermethrin was applied at concentrations of 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 mu g/L, for 1, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h. With increasing cypermethrin concentrations, the mussels showed significantly (P < 0.05) increased lipid peroxidation (MDA), which might be associated with decreased levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT) activity in the digestive glands and gills of the mussels. Negative correlations were observed between the MDA and the GSH and CAT levels after cypermethrin exposure, indicating a protective role of GSH and CAT against lipid peroxidation, and suggesting the use of these antioxidants as a potential biomarker of toxicity associated with contaminant exposure in freshwater mussels. In addition, at 5 mu g/L, cypermethrin had no effect on the duration of the active and rest periods. All higher concentrations caused inhibition of the filtration activity by reducing the active periods and lengthening the rest periods. The active periods shortened as the cypermethrin concentrations increased, the reduction being 90% of the control at 160 mu g/L. Rest periods were longest (237% longer than the control) at 160 mu g/L. The 48, 72, and 96 h LC50 values of cypermethrin for mussels were determined as 96.50, 77.96, and 59.20 mu g/L, respectively (P < 0.05). The results indicate that the insecticide cypermethrin has a harmful effect not only on nontarget aquatic arthropods and fish, but also on mollusks, although the sensitivity of mussels is less than that of fish. Being a general toxicant for aquatic life, cypermethrin should be used with great caution in agriculture to protect natural waters from contamination.
