Phytoextraction efficiency of cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil mainly depended upon the mechanism of plants in absorption, translocation, distribution, and detoxification of Cd. A pot experiment was designed to investigate Cd distribution and accumulation among the different leaves of tall fescue
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are responsible for pumping drugs across membranes and are an important drug detoxification mechanism. Since ABC transporters act on a wide spectrum of chemical compounds, they have been associated with multidrug resistance phenotype in various parasites and
The glutathione (GSH) S-conjugation of 1,2-epoxy-3-(4'-nitrophenoxy)propane was catalysed predominantly by microsomal glutathione S-transferase (mGST) in Penicillium chrysogenum. The specific mGST activity unlike the cytosolic GST (cGST) activity increased substantially when the penicillin
Both toxicity and penicillin productivity of the hydroxylated derivatives of phenylacetic acid (PA) and phenoxyacetic acid (POA) were highly dependent on the position of hydroxylation on the aromatic ring in Penicillium chrysogenum. Hydroxylation at position 2 diminished penicillin production but
The objective of this study was to assess the effect of the exposure to fluazuron on the activity of common pesticide detoxification enzyme groups in the cattle tick (Rhipicephalus microplus). Engorged females of a susceptible strain (POA) and a resistant strain (Jaguar) were exposed in vitro to
Glutathione (gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine; GSH) shares structural similarities with the beta-lactam biosynthetic intermediate ACV-tripeptide (delta-(L-alpha-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine). Not surprisingly, GSH has been reported to inhibit the beta-lactam biosynthetic machinery quite
Among the ectoparasites of cattle, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (Canestrini) (Acari: Ixodidae) remains a major cause of economic losses to livestock. The chemical control with acaricides is still the most efficient method available to control ticks. The aims of this study were to diagnose
In 2007-2008, the "annual bluegrass weevil," Listronotus maculicollis Kirby (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a serious pest of Poa annua L. (Poales: Poaceae) on U.S. golf courses, was shown to be resistant to two pyrethroids, bifenthrin and lambda-cyhalothrin. In 2008, we showed that bifenthrin
