Herbicide Glyphosate

Pesticide degradation studies are essential to evaluate its impact in the environment and on non-target organisms. The effect of repeated soil applications of the herbicide glyphosate on its dissipation and on soil microorganisms was studied by radiometric and microbial techniques. Results indicated fast dissipation of the [14C]-glyphosate or [14C]metabolites extractable residues (half-life of 0.92±0.29 month), but increasing half-lives of total mineralization ranging from 2.2 to 3.4 months as the number of applications increased from 1 to 4. No significant correlation was found between 14CO2 production and dehydrogenase activity.

ABSTRACT The 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in intact erythrocytes of Nigerian patients, in particular with regard to haemoglobin genotypes and G6PD* activity was studied. The G6PD activity of the erythrocyte did not affect the oxidative transformation of testosterone to androstenedione and of oestradiol to oestrone. The reduction (reverse transformation) was inhibited in G6PD-deficient erythrocytes but this inhibition was offset by the addition of 0.025 m glucose to the incubation medium. The per cent oxidation transformation of testosterone was higher in Hb-AA than in Hb-SS erythrocytes. It is suggested that the differences may be a result of either lower enzyme activity in the Hb-SS erythrocytes or of differences in the uptake and possibly binding of sex steroids by intact Hb-SS and Hb-AA erythrocytes.

Histochemical Changes

ABSTRACT Acute changes in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase activity in the zona glomerulosa of the rat adrenal cortex were induced by peritoneal dialysis with 5 % glucose. Although less clear, the activity of 3β-ol-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase also seemed to increase as well. No changes were seen in the activity of succinate dehydrogenase. Dialysis with 0.9 % NaCl had no effect on any of the enzymes investigated. The possible significance of these observations is discussed.

The Impact

As a result of the model experiment, an increase in the enzymatic activity of meadow chernozem of the impact zone of Ataman Lake with the introduction of a strains mixture of metal-resistant microorganisms into the soil was established. The experiment has shown that the application of bacterial strains increases the dehydrogenase activity of contaminated soil by 51.8% compared to the variant without remediation
