Ex vivo effects of ibogaine on the activity of antioxidative enzymes in human erythrocytes
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2015)
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Ibogaine is a naturally occurring alkaloid with psychotropic and metabotropic effects, derived from the bark of the root of the West African Tabernanthe iboga plant. The tribes of Kongo basin ...
Flooding modifies the genotoxic effects of pollution on a worm, a mussel and two fish species from the Sava River
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
Extreme hydrological events, such as water scarcity and flooding, can modify the effect of other stressors present in aquatic environment, which could result in the significant changes in the ecosystem functioning. Presence ...
Longitudinal profile of the genotoxic potential of the River Danube on erythrocytes of wild common bleak (Alburnus alburnus) assessed using the comet and micronucleus assay
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
The Joint Danube Survey 3 (JDS3; the biggest river expedition in 2013) had offered the unique opportunity for a large-scale monitoring approach for biomarker response in feral fish collected along a Danube stretch from ...
Assessment of the genotoxic potential along the Danube River by application of the comet assay on haemocytes of freshwater mussels: The Joint Danube Survey 3
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
In this study we assessed the level of genotoxic pollution along the Danube River by measuring the level of DNA damage in the haemocytes of freshwater mussels of Unio sp. (Unio pictorum/Unio tumidus) and Sinanodonta woodiana. ...
Antiradical activity of delphinidin, pelargonidin and malvin towards hydroxyl and nitric oxide radicals: The energy requirements calculations as a prediction of the possible antiradical mechanisms
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Naturally occurring flavonoids, delphinidin, pelargonidin and malvin, were investigated experimentally and theoretically for their ability to scavenge hydroxyl and nitric oxide radicals. Electron spin resonance (ESR) ...
Mechanochemically assisted solid-state and citric acid complex syntheses of Cu-doped sodium cobaltite ceramics
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2015)
In the last decade, the sodium cobaltite ceramic became a promising candidate for potential thermoelectric applications, because of its large thermopower and low resistivity. In this work, polycrystalline samples of ...
Assessment of status of three water bodies in Serbia based on tissue metal and metalloid concentration (ICP-OES) and genotoxicity (comet assay)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Metals and metalloids are natural components of the biosphere, which are not produced per se by human beings, but whose form and distribution can be affected by human activities. Like all substances, they are a contaminant ...
Ultraviolet-B component of sunlight stimulates photosynthesis and flavonoid accumulation in variegated Plectranthus coleoides leaves depending on background light
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2015)
We used variegated Plectranthus coleoides as a model plant with the aim of clarifying whether the effects of realistic ultraviolet-B (UV-B) doses on phenolic metabolism in leaves are mediated by photosynthesis. Plants were ...
Chemometrics in biomonitoring: Distribution and correlation of trace elements in tree leaves
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
The concentrations of 15 elements were measured in the leaf samples of Aesculus hippocastanum, Tilia spp., Betula pendula and Acer platanoides collected in May and September of 2014 from four different locations in Belgrade, ...
Silicon increases phosphorus (P) uptake by wheat under low P acid soil conditions
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2017)
Although silicon (Si) is known to improve plant growth under low phosphorus (P) conditions, the in planta mechanisms responsible for this effect are still unknown. Here, we investigated the role of Si on P uptake along ...
