ombined effect of copper and cadmium on Chlorella vulgaris growth and hotosynthesis-related gene transcription

چکیده
Chlorella vulgaris was tested to assess their toxicities in freshwater contaminated by the metal compounds of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd), both singly and combined. Exposure to 0.5 and 1.5 M Cu or 1.0 and 2.0 M Cd alone significantly decreased algal growth and chlorophyll content and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) content. Two-way ANOVA analysis shows that the combination of these two metal compounds decreased cell growth, chlorophyll content and increased ROS content synergistically. The

Combined effect of copper and cadmium on Chlorella vulgaris growth and photosynthesis-related gene transcription.
Chlorella vulgaris was tested to assess their toxicities in freshwater contaminated by the metal compounds of copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd), both singly and combined. Exposure to 0.5 and 1.5 microM Cu or 1.0 and 2.0 microM Cd alone significantly decreased algal growth and chlorophyll content and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) content. Two-way ANOVA analysis shows that the combination of...
متن کاملEffects of copper oxide nanoparticles on the growth of Chlorella vulgaris
The increase of copper oxide nanoparticle (CuO-NP) utilization in industry during recent years has resulted in their entry into aquatic ecosystems. In light of this fact, we have studied the toxicity of CuO-NPs at various concentrations on Chlorella vulgaris using an algal growth inhibition test (OECD201). Chlorella vulgaris was grown in positive Zander (Z-8 + N) media in a growth chamber. Afte...
متن کاملSuppression of Chlorella vulgaris Growth by Cadmium, Lead, and Copper Stress and Its Restoration by Endogenous Brassinolide
Brassinosteroids play a significant role in the amelioration of various abiotic and biotic stresses. In order to elaborate their roles in plants subjected to heavy metals stress, Chlorella vulgaris cultures treated with 10(-8) M brassinolide (BL) were exposed to 10(-6)-10(-4) M heavy metals (cadmium, lead and copper) application. Under heavy metals stress, the growth and chemical composition (c...
متن کاملThe effect of Melatonin pretreatment on growth responses and enhancement of the enzyme's antioxidant system in Chlorella vulgaris under stress of ionizing radiation
Melatonin has important roles in many growth and stress-related responsive processes in plants and algae. In this study, the mediating role of 100 and 500 µM melatonin on photosynthetic pigments and non-enzymatic antioxidant responses of microalga, Chlorella vulgaris to gamma irradiation stress has been studied. The result showed that the alga treated with 100 µM had a stable amount of chloroph...
متن کاملGene expression changes of collagen І and ІІІ in human skin fibroblast cells in effect of microalga Chlorella vulgaris extract and compared to vitamin C
Skin aging is a biological process that is due to the reduction of collagen production and increase of multiple enzymes, including matrix metalloproteinase (MMPS), which degrade collagen. Chlorella vulgaris is a marine microalga and its beneficial effects on the skin make it a proper ingredient to be used in anti-aging products. In this study, the effect of C. vulgaris extract comparing to vita...
