The objective of this study was to evaluate the cytogenotoxic effects essential oil (EO) extracted from Backhousia citriodora L. (Myrtaceae) on plant model Lactuca sativa EO obtained through hydrodistillation, using a modified Clevenger apparatus (2 h), and subsequently analyzed by GC/MS GC-FID. Germinated seeds with root length 1–2 mm were exposed different concentrations (5, 25, 50, 100, 200 500 μg mL− 1) for 48 h. Distilled water used as negative control. Cytogenetic analyses, cell cycle...
Herbicides are agrochemicals applied in the control of weeds. With frequent and repetitive use these substances, serious problems have been reported. Compounds natural origin their derivatives attractive options to obtain new compounds with herbicidal properties. By aiming develop potentiated activity, phenoxyacetic acids were synthesized from eugenol guaiacol. The characterized potential precursors was evaluated through bioassays regarding germination initial development Lactuca sativa...
The single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE), or comet assay, is a simple method that uses microgel and to evaluate damage in the DNA of cells. first protocol adapted for plants was described 1990s, however, universal standardized procedure not available date. This study aimed influence exposure time assay plant models Allium cepa L. Lactuca sativa Root tips both were exposed methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), known genotoxicant, 2 h 36 h. alkaline version samples performed, assessed. Arbitrary...
