Injections of Encapsulated pH Sensor SNARF-1 do not Induce Apparent Stress Reaction in Larvae of Endemic Baikal Caddisflies Baicalina thamastoides
Journal Title: Журнал ÑтреÑÑ-физиологии и биохимии - Year 2016, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
In the present study possibility of stress reaction of larvae of caddisflies [i]Baicalina thamastoides[/i] Martynov, 1914 to injection of encapsulated sensors has been assessed. Activities of superoxide dismutase, non-specific esterases and glutathione S-transferase, which play important roles in functioning of organism defense systems, were used as biomarkers. Enzyme activities were measured after injections of empty microcapsules and microcapsules with fluorescent pH sensor SNARF-1, as well as after inlections of physiological saline solution and solution of the fluorescent sensor. Obtained results argue for nontoxicity and no apparent stress reaction of antioxidant and detoxification systems of B. thamastoides larvae to both types of microcapsules.

Содержание воды и сахаров в листьях лекарственных растений в течение вегетации
Увеличение содержания сахаров, выполняющих криопротекторную функцию, наблюдали к концу периода вегетации. На побережье озера Байкал накопление сахаров происходило интенсивнее, чем в Иркутске.
EFFECT OF Cu AND Mn TOXICITY ON CHLOROPHYLL FLUORESCENCE AND GAS EXCHANGE IN RICE AND SUNFLOWER UNDER DIFFERENT LIGHT INTENSITIES
Copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn) are essential micronutrients for plants, but toxic at high concentrations. Responses of rice (Oryza sativa L.) and sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) to toxic concentrations of Mn and Cu (up...
