What is Blockade of heavy metals accumulation in Chlorella vulgaris cells by 24-epibrassinolide about?
This study was conducted on the influence of 24-epibrassinolide (24-epiBL) mixed with varying concentrations of heavy metals (copper, lead, cadmium, zinc) upon the growth and accumulation of these heavy metals in the cell of the alga Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck (Chlorophyceae). Heavy metals at the concentration of 10 -3 M, alone or mixed with 24-epiBL, showed a lethal effect on C. vulgaris. At metal concentrations of 10 -6 -10 -4 M, a combination with 24-epiBL appeared to have a stronger stimulatory effect on a number of cells than a single metal (a stronger inhibitory effect). 24-EpiBL at the concentration of 10 -8 M in combination with heavy metals (in the range 10 -6 -10 -4 M) blocked metal accumulation in algal cells. 24-EpiBL has an anti-stress effect on C. vulgaris contaminated by heavy metals. The inhibitory effect on metal accumulation of 24-epiBL mixed with different heavy metals was arranged in the following order: zinc > cadmium > lead > copper. This process is correlated with the stimulation of growth of C. vulgaris. The stimulatory effect of 24-epiBL mixed with heavy metals leading to an increased pH in the medium (5.28-6.20) was significantly higher than the impact
