چکیده
The objective of this study was to characterize the non-enzymatice and enzymatic antioxidants of E. littorale Blume grown under wild condition. Aerial and sub-aerial parts of the plants exposed to different heat stress was analyzed for the non enzymatic antioxidants such as Tocopherol, Phenols, DPPH, FRAP and enzymatic antioxidants such as Polyphenol oxidase, Peroxidase, Catalase, Super Oxide Dismutase, which revealed quite an interesting observation. In the plant, the enzymatic antioxidant activity was found to be significant in the shade dried extracts. This enzymatic antioxidant activity concludes the potential degradation of free radicals. The non-enzymatic antioxidant activity contributes significantly in both fresh and shade dried extracts except the DPPH activity which found to be significant in the sun dried extracts of the plant material

متن کاملThe effects of heavy metal mercury on some physiological responsses in Nicotiana tabacum
One of the major abiotic stresses that negatively affects plants is the presence of heavy metals. Soil pollution with heavy metals, resulting from the industrial development and use of fertilizers containing heavy metals, has become a major environmental concern in human societies. Mercury is a toxic heavy metal that causes pollution in agricultural lands. Accumulation of Hg by plants may disru...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species generation and use of antioxidants during in vitro maturation of oocytes: a Review
In vitro maturation (IVM) is emerging as a popular technology at the forefront of fertility treatment and preservation. However, standard in vitro culture conditions usually increase reactive oxygen species (ROS), which have been implicated as one of the major causes for reduced embryonic developmental competence. It is well-known that higher than physiological levels of ROS triggers granulosa ...
