Journal ArticleDOI

Genotoxicity of the herbicide formulation Roundup® (glyphosate) in broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) evidenced by the Comet assay and the Micronucleus test

TL;DR: This study demonstrated adverse effects of Roundup on DNA of C. latirostris and confirmed that the Comet assay and the MN test applied on caiman erythrocytes are useful tools in determining potential genotoxicity of pesticides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caiman latirostris (broad-snouted caiman) as a sentinel organism for genotoxic monitoring: basal values determination of micronucleus and comet assay.

TL;DR: This study adapts two widely used genotoxic techniques, the comet assay and the micronucleus test, for their application in C. latirostris and determines the baseline values in this species, in order to establish its suitability as a sentinel organism for future genot toxic monitoring of environmental pollutants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic, enzymatic and developmental alterations observed in Caiman latirostris exposed in ovo to pesticide formulations and mixtures in an experiment simulating environmental exposure

TL;DR: Results demonstrated genotoxicity, enzymatic and metabolic alterations, as well as growth delay in caimans exposed in ovo to Treatments 1 and 2, showing a higher toxicity for the mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cypermethrin induction of DNA damage and oxidative stress in zebrafish gill cells.

TL;DR: Data indicate that CYP causes gill cell's DNA damage and oxidative stress, modifying the activities of the enzymes responsible for maintaining ROS balance, as well as in their corresponding gene expression levels.
