甲氰菊酯对斑马鱼的毒性效应

选用模式生物斑马鱼(Brachydanio rerio)作为毒性实验动物,探索甲氰菊酯(fenpropathrin)对鱼类的毒性效应,为农业生产和环境保护提供参考数据。结果显示甲氰菊酯对斑马鱼成鱼96h LC50为3.38×10-3mg/kg,属于剧毒级,安全浓度为0.34×10-3mg/kg;较低浓度下甲氰菊酯对斑马鱼早期发育影响不显著,在较高浓度1、10mg/kg下,斑马鱼96h畸形率分别达到84%和90%,心包囊肿率分别为25%和88%,而致死效应不明显。亚致死剂量下甲氰菊酯对斑马鱼肝胰脏GPT、GOT、SOD活性有明显诱导效应,在高浓度和长时间暴露下诱导效应降低;肝胰脏中AChE活性显著地受到甲氰菊酯的抑制,抑制效应对毒物的浓度和染毒时间有良好的依赖性,是一种良好的环境污染检测生物学指标。     

草甘膦铵盐对3种滩涂动物抗氧化酶、丙二醛及大弹涂鱼红细胞微核的影响

为评价草甘膦对河口及滩涂水域生物的影响,采用室内人工染毒法,研究了草甘膦铵盐对可口革囊星虫Phascolosoma esculenta、缢蛏Sinonovacula constricta Lamark和大弹涂鱼Boleophthalmus pectinirostris 3种滩涂动物超氧化物歧化酶 (SOD)、过氧化氢酶 (CAT)、丙二醛 (MDA) 及大弹涂鱼红细胞微核的影响。结果表明:经低浓度 (63.5 mg/L) 草甘膦短时间 (2 d) 染毒后,可口革囊星虫肠组织的SOD、CAT活性值及MDA含量分别为231.54、1.719 U/mg pro. 和0.60 nmol/mg pro.,3种指标均显著或极显著高于相应对照值 (204.88、1.521 U/mg pro. 和0.54 nmol/mg pro.),且随着药剂处理浓度增加,SOD、CAT活性及MDA含量均升高;但当染毒时间延长至8 d时,可口革囊星虫肠组织的SOD、CAT活性值及MDA含量均明显降低,分别为155.67、1.403 U/mg pro. 和0.53 nmol/mg pro.,显著低于对照,且随药剂处理浓度进一步增加,酶活性及MDA含量值降低更显著。草甘膦对缢蛏内脏团及大弹涂鱼肝脏SOD、CAT活性及MDA含量的影响表现出类似规律。此外,经低浓度 (53.5 mg/L) 草甘膦染毒8 d后,大弹涂鱼红细胞微核率及核异常率分别为17.00‰ 和21.33‰,均极显著高于相应对照值 (13.67‰ 和13.33‰),且随着草甘膦浓度增大,其红细胞微核率及核异常率均显著升高,表明大弹涂鱼对草甘膦有较高的敏感性。所得研究结果可为评价草甘膦对河口及滩涂水域生物的影响提供参考依据。     

高锰胁迫下草甘膦对空心莲子草体内莽草酸含量和抗氧化酶活性的影响

鉴于高锰胁迫下空心莲子草Alternanthera philoxeroides对草甘膦的耐药性增强,在水培条件下研究了不同浓度锰条件下草甘膦处理后该草体内莽草酸的积累和主要抗氧化酶系统的响应。次高浓度锰(0.31 mmol/L)条件下培养120 d后空心莲子草体内过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性显著高于常规浓度锰处理(0.009 1 mmol/L,对照);高浓度锰(2.45 mmol/L)条件下超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性升高,CAT活性下降。草甘膦(按草甘膦酸68 g/hm2)茎叶处理后6 d内,常规锰浓度培养的空心莲子草体内莽草酸含量比用草甘膦刚处理时增加了31.9％~226.0%,且显著高于同一时间次高锰和高锰的处理;不同锰浓度下培养的空心莲子草体内过氧化物酶(POD)和CAT、SOD活性均为先升高后再逐渐下降,但次高锰处理的该3种酶活性均高于对照,高锰处理的SOD和POD活性高于对照,而CAT活性与对照相当。上述结果表明,在较高锰浓度下空心莲子草能启动抗氧化酶系统而能有效地清除自由基;在草甘膦处理后初期,高锰条件下空心莲子草体内莽草酸途径受抑制程度较轻,抗氧化酶活性较高,这可能是空心莲子草耐高锰和高锰条件下该草耐草甘膦的部分机制。     

金龟子绿僵菌对黄曲条跳甲体内保护酶活性的影响

为探索绿僵菌对黄曲条跳甲保护酶活性的影响, 分别用浓度为1×108?2×108?4×108?8×108?1.6×109个/mL的金龟子绿僵菌CQMa421孢子悬浮液处理黄曲条跳甲成虫, 对侵染后黄曲条跳甲体内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)?过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性进行了研究?结果表明:处理后120 h内, SOD活性先升高后降低, 48 h时SOD活性达最高, 分别为69.5?72.5?74.5?75.9?76.7 U/g, SOD活性与孢子悬浮液浓度呈正相关; 各处理POD活性在处理后72 h时开始上升, 96 h时活性最高, 分别为1 020?1 066.67?1 240?1 086.67?1 166.67 U/g, 分别为对照组的3.33?3.48?4.04?3.54倍和3.80倍, 随后开始下降; CAT活性变化总体趋势为上升—下降—上升—下降; 3种酶活性最后都恢复至对照组水平, 各处理组最大值间差异显著, 且显著高于对照组, 表明3种保护酶在黄曲条跳甲抵御金龟子绿僵菌入侵过程中均做出了应激反应?     

虱螨脲亚致死浓度对小菜蛾保护酶系和解毒酶系活力的影响

为阐明虱螨脲对小菜蛾亚致死效应的生化机制,采用室内生物测定法测定了LC_(10)和LC_(25)亚致死浓度处理小菜蛾3龄幼虫1、6、12、24、48和72 h后其体内保护酶系和解毒酶系的活力变化。结果表明:虱螨脲LC_(10)处理对小菜蛾幼虫体内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活力表现为早期诱导、后期抑制的作用,而对过氧化物酶(POD)则表现为先抑制后诱导的作用,对过氧化氢酶(CAT)仅在72h时具有诱导作用;LC_(25)处理对SOD表现为诱导-抑制-诱导-抑制的作用,对POD具有抑制作用,而对CAT具有诱导作用。经虱螨脲亚致死浓度处理后,小菜蛾幼虫体内酯酶和多功能氧化酶活力被明显抑制,且基本表现为浓度越高抑制作用越强;而谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GST)活力仅在处理后1 h被诱导,之后被显著抑制。表明虱螨脲进入小菜蛾幼虫体内后,初期可诱导SOD、CAT和GST活力升高,以适应外界毒害的影响;但随着时间的延长,3种解毒酶活力被抑制,使其难以代谢,从而增强了对小菜蛾的毒性。     

钙离子和茉莉酸灌根对菜豆叶片防御酶活性和西花蓟马取食偏好性的影响

为探明外源物质对菜豆植株防御酶活性和西花蓟马取食偏好性的影响。本试验分别采用CaCl₂和茉莉酸(JA)进行灌根,研究了西花蓟马取食前后菜豆叶片脂氧合酶(LOX)、丙二烯氧化物合酶(AOS)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、过氧化物酶(POD)和多酚氧化酶(PPO)活性的变化,并研究了西花蓟马对JA和CaCl₂处理后的菜豆植株的取食偏好性。结果表明：不论CaCl₂还是JA灌根均可诱导菜豆防御酶AOS、LOX、CAT和SOD活性的上升,其中对CAT活性影响最大,其活性分别上升至对照的2.83倍和3.57倍,但对POD和PPO活性没有影响。西花蓟马取食CaCl₂处理的菜豆植株,能诱导LOX、POD和PPO活性分别上升1.40、2.03倍和2.26倍,而SOD活性则被显著抑制。西花蓟马取食JA灌根的菜豆植株能明显诱导POD和PPO活性的升高,二者活性分别是未取食植株的1.67倍和1.45倍,但AOS、LOX、CAT和SOD活性被抑制。西花蓟马2龄若虫取食CaCl₂和JA...     

二氧化碳浓度和温度升高对烟粉虱主要保护酶和解毒酶活性的影响

为明确烟粉虱Bemisia tabaci(Gennadius)在大气CO2浓度和温度双因子胁迫下的生理响应,以CO2浓度和温度为作用因子,研究了4种不同组合处理下烟粉虱成虫体内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽转移酶(GST)、乙酰胆碱酯酶(Ach E)活性的变化。结果表明:常温处理下,CO2浓度升高烟粉虱体内POD和GST活性分别增加87.6%和295%,SOD和CAT活性分别降低22.4%和28.2%;高温处理下,CO2浓度升高烟粉虱体内Ach E和GST活性分别增加103.6%和167.5%,CAT活性降低31.6%;常CO2浓度处理下,温度升高烟粉虱体内POD和SOD活性分别增加46.2%和18.2%,CAT活性降低35.8%;高CO2浓度处理下,温度升高烟粉虱体内Ach E和SOD活性分别增加75.3%和40.3%,CAT活性降低38.9%。表明CO2浓度和温度升高是导致烟粉虱体内SOD、POD、GST和Ach E活性升高的主要原因,并且SOD和POD活性变化受到CO2和温度的交互影响。烟粉虱可能通过改变体内保护酶或解毒酶的活性来适应CO2浓度和温度升高的环境。     

盐胁迫对大果沙枣膜脂过氧化和保护酶活性的影响

用50,100,200,300 mmol／L NaCl处理大果沙枣,NaCl胁迫10,20,30d后取叶样测定结果显示：处理10d的大果沙枣叶片细胞膜透性保持稳定,随盐浓度的增加及胁迫时间的延长,叶片细胞膜透性逐渐增加。NaCl胁迫30d时,300mmol／L NaCl胁迫的叶片膜透性达到68.8％。整个处理过程中,丙二醛含量逐渐增加,但增加幅度不大,表明脂质过氧化反应水平较低。各处理浓度的SOD和POD活性整体上呈增加趋势,其中NaCl胁迫10d和30d,胁迫浓度50mmol／L时其活性达到最大值。另外,SOD和POD活性随着时间的延长有所降低,CAT活性则一直增加。     

转cry1Ie基因玉米残体对赤子爱胜蚓的生长发育及体内酶活性的影响

转Bt基因抗虫玉米通过根系分泌物或植株残体降解等方式将植株表达的Bt杀虫蛋白释放到土壤中。本文通过在人工土壤中添加磨碎的转cry1Ie基因玉米植株残体来饲养赤子爱胜蚓Eisenia foetida,研究了转cry1Ie基因玉米植株残体对赤子爱胜蚓生长发育及体内酶活性的影响。结果显示,在63 d的试验中,添加转cry1Ie基因玉米植株残体处理组没有引起赤子爱胜蚓的死亡。5个处理组与对照组中每7 d的蚯蚓体重、产茧数量、茧孵化数量均没有显著差异。SOD酶和POD酶活力随Bt玉米植株残体组织含量的增加而增加,50B+0N(50 g Bt/500 g土壤)处理组中SOD酶和POD酶活力要显著高于0B+50N(50 g non-Bt/500 g土壤)对照组。因此,Bt玉米植株残体可以在7 d时诱导赤子爱胜蚓SOD酶和POD酶活性。但5个处理组与对照组中赤子爱胜蚓的总蛋白含量、AChE和CAT酶活力没有显著的差异。     

内生芽孢杆菌TB2防治辣椒疫病效果及其机理初探

 内生芽孢杆菌(Bacillus sp.) TB2对辣椒疫霉(Phytophthora capsici)引起的辣椒苗和果疫病有良好的防治效果,菌液浸种处理的苗接种病菌后20 d防病效果可达70.0%;菌液浇灌后48 h的苗接种病菌后20 d防病效果可达88.1%;菌液喷雾处理的果接种病菌后14 d防病效果可达65.2%。喷雾或浇灌菌株培养液后间隔24 h以上接种病原菌的防病效果比二者同时接种时高。生防菌菌体及其胞外分泌物均有防病作用,其胞外分泌物的速效性较好,菌体的持效性较好。菌株胞外分泌物对病菌菌丝生长、孢子囊形成和游动孢子释放均有明显的抑制作用。菌液可诱导植物抗性相关酶的变化,但其与病菌共同接种于辣椒时诱导作用可相互影响。疫霉菌处理可使辣椒果的丙二醛(MDA)含量和过氧化物酶(POD)、超氧化歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性出现明显的峰值;菌液处理可诱导辣椒SOD和POD活性增强;但菌液与病菌共同处理后,辣椒果的MDA含量和SOD、POD、CAT的活性均较低,与清水对照接近,表现出一种相对稳定的状态。     

Biochemical and histological hepatic changes of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus exposed to carbaryl

The purpose of this study was to evaluate biochemical and morphological responses induced by carbaryl in the liver of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) exposed during 21 days to sublethal concentrations (0.25 and 0.5 mg L⁻¹), testing also recover for 14 days in clean water, after 14 days exposure. The activities of the following enzymes were measured: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR), and reduced (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG). Globally, our data showed that exposure to carbaryl decreased the SOD, CAT, GR, and GST activities, except for the SOD and GST activities after 14 days exposure to 0.25 mg L⁻¹. In contrast, after 14 days exposure the GR activity of the hepatic tissue from carbaryl-treated fish showed significant elevation in relation to the control. When fish were left to recover, a positive response was seen in the GSH and GSSG contents. The results of the recovery group suggest that the toxicity produced by carbaryl is reversible to some extent within 15 days. The liver histological analysis showed differences between fish concerning the cellular vacuolization degree (VD) of the hepatocytes. In fish exposed to carbaryl it was observed an increasing hepatocellular basophilia. No other histological alterations were observed when fish was exposed to carbaryl, except a few necrotic foci at day 7. The sections stained with PAS reaction showed that the vacuolization was always not due to glycogen deposits, thus suggesting lipid accumulation. The combined increased basophilia and glycogen depletion is a common, although non-specific, liver response to many toxicants. In short, this work shows a relation between histological and biochemical changes in liver and carbaryl exposure. The effects of carbaryl were observed at different concentrations.     

Effect of methyl parathion and chlorpyrifos on certain biomarkers in various tissues of guppy fish, Poecilia reticulata

Tests of acute toxicity were performed on the most common species of aquarium fish, Poecilia reticulata. Guppies (P. reticulata) were exposed to progressive concentrations of methyl parathion (MP) and chlorpyrifos (CPF); a semi-static method according to guidelines of OECD was used. Tests of acute toxicity were conducted using 10 fish for each separate concentration and for the control group. The results were subjected to probit analysis to determine the 96 h LC₅₀ values. The 96 h LC₅₀ values of MP and CPF to P. reticulata were 8.48 ppm/L (5.98–10.89) and 0.176 ppm/L (0.313–0.224) respectively. In addition, behavioral changes at each concentration were observed for the individual fish. Fish were exposed for 96 h to different sublethal concentrations of MP and CPF (¼ LC₅₀, 1/8 LC₅₀ and 1/10 LC₅₀) and their oxidative stress-induction potential was estimated in brain, liver and gills of fish. MDA content is induced in all tissues but maximum rise was observed in gills (161% and 153% for MP and CPF respectively). With regard to antioxidant defense system (ADS), GSH level decreased in the brain, liver and gills of tissues of MP treated fishes (22%, 6% and 13% respectively) and showed increase in brain and gills CPF treated (23% and 21% respectively). CAT, GST, GR and SOD levels fluctuated in all treatment groups relative to the control. Brain AChE showed dose-dependent inhibition in fish exposed to the higher concentrations reached 45% and 66% for MP and CPF respectively. Collective findings demonstrated that pesticide exposure of fish induced an increase in MDA and fluctuated ADS along with inhibited AChE. These findings may be used as valuable biomarkers for evaluation of water pollution.     

Effects of carbaryl and azinphos methyl on juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) detoxifying enzymes

In this study, the effects of sublethal exposures to the anticholinesterase insecticides azinphos methyl (AzMe) and carbaryl on the detoxifying responses of juvenile rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss were investigated. Juvenile specimen were exposed to sublethal concentrations of AzMe (2.5 and 5 μg/L) and carbaryl (1 and 3 mg/L) for 24, 48 and 96 h. Carboxylesterase (CbE), catalase (CAT) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities as well as reduced glutathione (GSH) and cytochrome P450-1A (CYP1A) levels were monitored in liver and/or kidney. In all exposed groups liver CbE was significantly inhibited. Liver and kidney GSH level was reduced after sublethal exposure to both compounds. Carbaryl induced CAT activity during the first 48 h of exposure, followed by a significant decrease, whereas AzMe continuously decreased CAT activity. GST activity and CYP1A were transiently induced at 24 h by carbaryl exposure (3 mg/L) but sublethal exposure to AzMe did not affect GST activity or CYP1A. Our results show that the O. mykiss detoxifying system are a target for carbaryl and AzMe action, probably affecting redox balance. Although the responses showed similar trends in both organs, they were more important in liver than in kidney. The early inhibitory effect in CAT activity and GSH content produced by AzMe may be associated with a high degree of oxidative stress. Early induction of CYP1A, GST and CAT by carbaryl followed by enzyme inhibition suggests a milder or delayed oxidative stress, revealing differences between both pesticides metabolization. CbE inhibition is a good biomarker for AzMe and carbaryl exposure.     

Oxidative parameters of Rhamdia quelen in response to commercial herbicide containing clomazone and recovery pattern

In this study, fish Rhamdia quelen, were exposed to different concentrations of herbicide clomazone: 0.0 (control), 0.45 and 0.91 mg L⁻¹. After exposure for 8 days to herbicide, fish were transferred to clean water for a recovery period (8 days). Oxidative stress indicators such as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) levels and protein carbonyl content, as well as antioxidant defenses, such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione S-transferase (GST), ascorbic acid and non-protein thiols levels were studied, using the liver, brain and muscle tissues. Herbicide exposure increased TBARS in muscle and in liver at higher concentration. In liver protein carbonylation increased and catalase activity did not change in fish exposed to herbicide. SOD enhanced in liver at concentration of 0.91 mg L⁻¹. GST, ascorbic acid and non-protein thiols levels increase at both concentrations. At the end of the recovery period the most of the parameters recovered whereas GST and ascorbic acid remain elevated. The present study demonstrates the occurrence of disorders in antioxidant parameters and importance in the assessment of the potential risk of herbicides as clomazone on fish species.     

The impact of co-infection by a nucleopolyhedrovirus and the endoparasitoid Microplitis pallidipes Szepligeti on the protective enzymes in hemolymph of Spodoptera exigua

We determined the effects of parasitism by Microplitis pallidipes and/or nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) infection on protective enzymes in the hemolymph of Spodoptera exigua larvae. We found that concentrations of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) were constantly higher within the five observation days after treatment in parasitized/virus-infected than healthy (control) larvae. In parasitized + infected larvae, enzyme levels reduced from day 1 compared to parasitized larvae. Compared to enzyme levels in virus-infected larvae, in parasitized + infected larvae, CAT concentrations were generally lower, while SOD concentrations were significantly lower in the first two days and POD concentrations were lower in the first two days, but higher in following three days. We concluded that joint and separate parasitism and NPV infection promoted the activities of protective enzymes. Our findings also revealed that NPV infection inhibited the activities of protective enzymes induced by parasitism of M. pallidipes and that the parasitism inhibited the CAT activity induced by NPV infection.     

溴氰虫酰胺胁迫对小地老虎保护酶和解毒酶活性的诱导效应

为明确小地老虎对溴氰虫酰胺的代谢解毒机制,采用浸叶法测定了溴氰虫酰胺对小地老虎3龄幼虫室内毒力,在此基础上,通过酶动力学法检测了溴氰虫酰胺亚致死剂量对小地老虎保护酶和解毒酶活力的影响,并比较了不同剂量处理后1、6、12、24、48和72 h时小地老虎体内保护酶和解毒酶活力的动态变化。结果表明,溴氰虫酰胺亚致死剂量初期可诱导过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活力升高;对羧酸酯酶(CarE)活力表现为早期诱导、后期抑制的作用;对谷胱甘肽S-转移酶(GSTs)活力表现为明显的诱导作用;对多功能氧化酶(MFOs)表现为一定程度的抑制作用。研究结果为深入了解小地老虎对溴氰虫酰胺的防御机理提供了一定的理论基础。     

Toxicological effects of oxyfluorfen on oxidative stress enzymes in tilapia Oreochromis niloticus

Several environmental pollutants enhance the intracellular formation of reactive oxygen species, and can lead to the damage of macromolecules and a decrease in oxidant defences levels in fish. The effects of the herbicide oxyfluorfen on the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase, and glutathione S-transferase were evaluated in freshwater fish Oreochromis niloticus. These were determined in tilapia liver exposed to sublethal concentrations (0.3 and 0.6 mg/L at 7, 14, and 21 days of exposure. This study also analyzed the effects of oxyfluorfen on the total fatty acid profile. The results showed that CAT activity was higher in tilapia exposed to oxyfluorfen at the sampling days, except at the highest concentration after 21 days. Similarly, the enhancing effect of the herbicide was observed on the GR activity. However, its effect was moderate at the highest dose. On the contrary, fish treated with oxyfluorfen at both doses displayed a decrease in the SOD activity. After 7 days of treatment at both concentrations tilapia showed a significant increase in GST levels, although the enzymatic activity decreased at 14 and 21 days of exposition when compared with the control. The major saturated fatty acids measured in tilapia liver were the palmitic acid (C16:0; 17.9%) and stearic acid (C18:0; 8.7%). The exposure to oxyfluorfen caused a significant increase of the oleic acid (C18:1), whereas the amount of nervonic acid (C24:1) increased at all sampling data. The results of the present study should be taken in account when using tilapia as an environmental indicator species in studies of xenobiotic biotransformation and biomarker response, as well as in monitoring programmes.     

Effects of the herbicide LASSO MTX (alachlor 42% W/V) on biometric parameters and liver biomarkers in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of subchronic exposure to the herbicide LASSO MTX (alachlor 42% W/V) on biometric parameters and important liver biomarkers in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio). One year old fish were exposed for 28 days to LASSO MTX added to the tank water at concentrations of 240 and 2400 μg L⁻¹. The exposure did not affect fish biometric parameters. Glutathione-S-tranferase (GST) activity in liver (hepatopancreas) remained unchanged in exposed fish when compared to controls. However, significant induction of total cytochrome P 450 (CYP 450), ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity and elevated glutathione (GSH) in liver of exposed fish were detected.
