Stereoselective degradation of ethofumesate in turfgrass and soil   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The stereoselective degradation of ethofumesate in turfgrasses and several agricultural soils was investigated to provide details of the fate of this chiral herbicide. Racemic ethofumesate was either foliar applied to two species of turfgrass or fortified into four types of agricultural soils. (+)- and (−)-Enantiomers were extracted and analyzed by a validated chiral HPLC method which involved extraction of samples with organic solvent followed by separation on cellulose-Tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate)-based chiral column and quantification by UV absorbance at 230 nm. Mean recoveries of each enantiomer fortified at 0.5, 5, and 10 μg g−1 ranged from 82.3 ± 5.84 to 92.5 ± 2.87% in turfgrasses and from 86.0 ± 5.09 to 98.1 ± 2.51% in soil. As a measure of this composition, the enantiomeric ratio (ER) was used, defined as the concentration ratio of (+)/(−)-enantiomer. Similarly, preferential degradation of the (−)-enantiomer was observed in both grass species with the largest ER of about 3 and in one of the test soil with ER = 1.65, resulting in residues enriched with (+)-enantiomer. This stereoselective degradation in this soil led to significant difference on half-lives between the two enantiomers. No stereoselective degradation was observed in other soils.  相似文献

The antioxidant responses of Solanum nigrum L. cell suspension cultures to metalaxyl exposure were investigated. An increase in lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide content, for both concentrations tested (20 mg L1; 40 mg L1) revealed the response of oxidative metabolism of cell suspensions to metalaxyl. Superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15.1.1), catalase (CAT; EC 1.11.1.6) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX; EC 1.11.1.11) activities increased, particularly in the highest concentration of metalaxyl used. An analysis by non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel (PAGE) followed by staining for enzyme activity, revealed seven SOD isoenzymes, two CAT isoenzymes, and nine APX isoenzymes. Metalaxyl levels were quantified in the culture medium and results suggest that suspension cells were able to accumulate and/or degrade the fungicide five hours after exposure. SOD, CAT and APX isoenzymes were differently affected by the metalaxyl treatment. Results suggest that the higher concentration of metalaxyl induced oxidative stress to cell suspension cultures of S. nigrum.  相似文献

Methyl 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-[N-(4-chlorophenyl)carbamoyl]-4-methyl-2-pyrazoline-4-carboxylate was converted to corresponding (1R)- and (1S)-phenethyl esters via its carboxylic acid and acid chloride at the C-4 atom to separate the diastereomers. Their configurations were confirmed by X-ray analysis. Both isomers of the (1R)methylbenzyl ester were subjected to transesterification with sodium methoxide to obtain enantiomers of the starting methyl ester. Their insecticidal activity was measured against American cockroaches (Periplaneta americana (L.)) by injection and against house flies (Musca domestica L.) by topical application under various synergistic conditions with metabolic inhibitors. The activity values of the four α-methylbenzyl esters and the R-isomer of the starting methyl ester were similar. The S-enantiomer of the methyl ester was about 10 and 100 times more active than the R-isomer against the cockroach and the fly, respectively. Some N-arylacetyl and N-aryloxyacetyl derivatives of the starting N-(4-chlorophenyl)carbamoyl compound gave very low activity. Conformation-energy profiles for some compounds suggested that the conformation of substituents on the N-1 atom in the pyrazoline ring has a specific role for the potential insecticidal effects.  相似文献

2-仲丁胺基-5-(2-氯吡啶-4-基)-1,3,4-噻二唑(BCPT)是早期发现的一个具有良好除草活性的外消旋先导化合物,报道了使用R/S-仲丁胺为原料分别合成BCPT的两个对映异构体的方法。初步生测结果显示,3种噻二唑化合物(外消旋体和两个对映异构体)对稗草的根和茎均表现出较强的抑制作用,其中S-(+)对映异构体对茎的抑制作用强于R-(-)对映异构体和外消旋体,但对根的生长抑制作用三者间没有显著差异。  相似文献

The optical isomers, (R)-1(α-methylbenzyl)-3-p-tolylurea ((R)-MBU) and (S)-1-(α-methylbenzyl)-3-p-tolylurea ((S)MBU), which are analogues of daimuron [1-(α,α-dimethylbenzyl)-3-p-tolylurea], a herbicide for Cyperaceae weeds and a safener for paddy rice, exhibited different biological responses. These two physiological properties of daimuron were observed separately in (R)-MBU and (S)-MBU. Only (R)-MBU had herbicidal activity against Cyperaceae weeds, while the (S)-isomer was a more effective safener against bensulfuron-methyl (BSM) injury of rice seedlings than was (R)-MBU. (S)-MBU promoted root growth of rice seedlings, but the (R)-enantiomer inhibited root growth. (S)-MBU was a more potent inhibitor than (R)-MBU on PS II reaction of spinach broken chloroplasts. Furthermore, (S)-MBU and (R)-MBU showed cross intergenus selective phytotoxicity among the Gramineae plants, Oryza sativa L. (rice, cv. Tsukinohikari, japonica), Triticum aestivum L. (wheat, cv. Norin No. 61) and Echinochloa crusgalli var. frumentacea Wight, on root growth inhibition in the dark.  相似文献

Fluazifop-butyl was incubated with two soils under aerobic conditions at 20°C. Hydrolysis of the racemic herbicidal ester yielded a residue of the corresponding carboxylic acid, fluazifop, in which the R-enantiomer predominated. Further studies involving the treatment of soil with the separate enantiomers of fluazifop-butyl showed that the two enantiomers were each hydrolysed with retention of their optical configuration. However, the hydrolysis product with the S-configuration was inverted (50% inversion in 1-2 days) to yield, ultimately, a residue of the R-enantiomer with a high optical purity.  相似文献

The effect of chitosan (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg ml−1) on mycelium growth, potassium efflux, pH of the incubation medium, and activity of plasma membrane H+-ATPase of Rhizopus stolonifer was evaluated. The mycelium growth of R. stolonifer was reduced on media amended with chitosan at 1.0 and 2.0 mg ml−1. The highest antifungal index (65%) was obtained on media containing chitosan at 2.0 mg ml−1. Potassium efflux induced by the addition of the three chitosan concentrations was demonstrated. The highest potassium effluxes were observed with addition of chitosan at 2.0 mg ml−1. R. stolonifer grown 72 h on Potato Dextrose Broth without chitosan generated a decrease in the medium’s pH from 5.4 to 4.8. However, the addition of chitosan at all concentrations caused increases on pH of medium cultures. The highest pH increases were observed on media amended chitosan at 2.0 mg ml−1 resulting in the raising of pH level to 6.9. Additionally, there was an important inhibitory effect of chitosan (1.0 and 2.0 mg ml−1) on H+-ATPase activity in the plasma membrane of R. stolonifer (32.70%).  相似文献

We investigated the metabolic kinetics and toxicity of ethofumesate (ETO) in rat and chicken hepatocytes using a chiral high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method. The metabolic of ETO in rat hepatocytes was enantioselective, whereas it was not in chicken hepatocytes. The T1/2 of (−)-ETO was about two times longer than that of (+)-ETO after the rat hepatocytes had been incubated with 20 μM rac-ETO. There was no chiral conversion or transformation during their incubation with the hepatocytes. Toxicity differences were observed between the two enantiomers of ETO, reflected in their EC50 values in rat and chicken hepatocytes. The stereoselective cytotoxicity of the two enantiomers was opposite in rat and chicken hepatocytes. We have developed a method of studying the toxicokinetics and cytotoxicity of chiral agrochemicals in hepatocytes isolated from mammals (rats) and chicken. The data presented here allow a more thorough understanding of this pesticide and should be useful in its full environmental assessment.  相似文献

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes-polymeric methyl red film modified electrode (MWNT-PMRE) was made. The electrochemical behavior of carbendazim on modified electrode was studied with Cyclic Voltammetry, Linear Sweep Voltammetry, Stable Polarization Method and Chronocoulometry. The results indicated that the electrical oxidation of carbendazim on MWNT-PMRE in H2SO4 supporting electrolyte with concentration of 0.6 mol/L was irreversible and was mainly controlled by diffusion. Some parameters of the electrochemical process were evaluated. The impacts of experiment conditions on the electrochemical behavior of carbendazim were studied. A good linearity relationship between peak current and concentration of carbendazim in the range of 2.0 × 10−7-1.0 × 10−5 mol/L was found, of which the equation was Ip(A) = −1.149 × 10−5 − 2.301c (mol/L), the correlative coefficient R = −0.9953 and detection limit was 9.0 × 10−9 mol/L. The recovery was between 90.3% and 94.7%.  相似文献

Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are of environmental significance due to their high toxicity to animals. Binding to plasma proteins may effective influence the toxicological properties of xenobiotics. In an attempt to evaluate the affinity of phenthoate (PTA) to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and inhibitory ability of bound PTA to acetylcholinesterase (AChE), we investigated the interactions between phenthoate (PTA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) using tryptophan fluorescence quenching and subsequent inhibition on AChE activity by PTA. The results showed that PTA caused the fluorescence quenching of BSA because of the formation of a PTA-BSA complex. Quenching constants (Ksv), determined using the Sterns-Volmer equation to provide a measure of the binding affinity between PTA and BSA at 303, 306, 310 and 313 K were (3.4295 ± 0.0763) × 10−4, (3.2446 ± 0.0635) × 10−4, (3.0434 ± 0.0856) × 10−4 and (2.8262 ± 0.0569) × 10−4 M−1, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters, ΔH and ΔS were −25.04 kJ mol−1 and 168.94 J mol−1 K−1, respectively, which indicated that the electrostatic interactions played a major role in PTA-BSA association. The presence of BSA consistently reduced the inhibitory ability of PTA on AChE, with the relative activity being increased from 46.98 to 61.71% for the concentration range of BSA between 0 and 4.0 g L−1.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to determine the 96 h-LC50 of benomyl to the Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus and to investigate the biochemical or hematological indices of blood and the alterations in the antioxidant enzymes of this fish in response to sublethal concentrations of benomyl. Fish weighing 71.61 ± 12.05 g were used in this study; they were subjected to fasting for 4 weeks before treatment. An aqueous solution of benomyl (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 mg L−1) was administered for 96 h to determine the LC50. The 96 h-LC50 value of benomyl was 4.39 (3.23-5.60) mg L−1 in the present study. For 5 weeks, the aqueous solution of benomyl (0, 100, 200, and 400 μg L−1) was administered to investigate its effect on the hematological parameters and antioxidant enzymes. The predominant hematological findings in fish exposed to benomyl were as follows: no significant change in the Hb (g dL−1) level, MCV (μm3), MCH (pg) and MCHC (%) as compared to the control. Benomyl exposure led to greater increases in the GPT, GOT (Karmen-unit), LDH (Wroblewski unit), total cholesterol, Fe, and Ca (mg dL−1) values, whereas the levels of ALP (KA unit), total protein, triglyceride, albumin, and Mg (mg dL−1) did not increase. Benomyl increased the in vivo HSI (%), GST (nmol min−1 mg protein−1), and SOD (U mg protein−1) values in the fish livers in the test group, unlike those in the control group for 5 weeks. At concentrations higher than 100 μg L−1, benomyl affected the GST and SOD levels of Nile tilapia in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The present findings suggest that the in vivo hepatotoxicity associated with benomyl may, in part, result from the hematological index, and antioxidants may provide limited protection against benomyl toxicity.  相似文献

The toxicity of the (R)P and (S)P chiral isomers and racemates of fonofos and fonofos oxon to insects and white mice were determined. (R)P-Fonofos and (S)P-fonofos oxon were 2- to 12-fold more toxic to house flies, mosquito larvae, and mice than were the corresponding enantiomers. The racemates were intermediate in toxicity. Stereoselectivity also was observed in the in vitro inhibition of house fly-head and bovine erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase, horse serum cholinesterase, chymotrypsin, trypsin, and a variety of esterases. In all cases the (S)P-oxon was a more potent inhibitor than the (R)P-oxon with k1 ratios of (S)P(R)P ranging from 4- to 60-fold. Further, differences in levels of house fly-head, mouse brain, and blood cholinesterase obtained from house flies and mice treated with the enantiomers and racemates of fonofos and fonofos oxon were observed. Differences in toxicity of the enantiomers and racemates to house flies and mice were more closely related to in vivo than to in vitro cholinesterase inhibition.  相似文献

A sixty-day experiment was carried out to study the effect of dietary pyridoxine (PN) on growth performance, RNA/DNA ratio and some biochemical parameters of Labeo rohita fingerlings exposed to sub-lethal dose of endosulfan (1/10th of 96 h static non-renewal LC50 = 0.2 ppb) to assess the role of pyridoxine in ameliorating the negative effects of endosulfan. Two hundred seventy fingerlings (6.5 ± 0.26 g) were randomly distributed into six treatments in triplicates (15 fish/tank). Five iso-nitrogenous (35.45-35.75% crude protein) purified diets were prepared with graded levels of pyridoxine. Six treatment groups were T0 (10 mg PN + without endosulfan), T1 (0 mg PN + endosulfan), T2 (10 mg PN + endosulfan), T3 (50 mg PN + endosulfan), T4 (100 mg PN + endosulfan) and T5 (200 mg PN + endosulfan). Weight gain (%), specific growth rate (SGR), tissue glycogen, and protease activity were significantly (P < 0.05) higher in pyridoxine fed groups compared to their non-pyridoxine fed counterpart. Protease activity was positively correlated (R2 = 0.931) with (%) weight gain. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) activity was significantly (P < 0.05) higher in non-pyridoxine fed group and decreased in pyridoxine fed counterparts. There were no significant (P > 0.05) effect of dietary pyridoxine on feed conversion ratio (FCR), protein efficiency ratio (PER), survival, gastro-somatic index (GSI), hepato-somatic index (HSI) and liver and muscle DNA levels of L. rohita fingerlings. RNA levels, both in liver and muscle, increased significantly (P < 0.05) in pyridoxine fed groups. A positive correlation was observed between growth and RNA levels, both in liver (R2 = 0.91) and muscle (R2 = 0.88). RNA/DNA ratio showed a third order polynomial relationship with dietary pyridoxine, both in liver (Y = −0.014x3 + 0.1613x2 − 0.5333x + 0.7933, R2 = 0.987) and muscle (Y = −0.0407x3 + 0.4763x2 − 1.6358x + 2.4667, R2 = 0.9345). The overall results obtained in present study indicated that dietary pyridoxine supplementation at 100 or 200 mg PN/kg diet ameliorates the negative effects of endosulfan and restores optimal growth of L. rohita fingerlings.  相似文献

The objective of this work was to identify the reproductive toxico-pathological effects of cypermethrin (CY) in mature male rabbits. Apparently healthy adult age- and weight-matched rabbits (n = 40) were procured from the local market, kept under similar management conditions and divided into four equal groups. Different doses of CY (50, 100 and 150 mg kg−1 body mass) mixed in mustard oil were injected intraperitonealy at weekly intervals in male rabbits (groups B-D) prior to mating. Group A served as control and each animal in this group received equivalent volume of mustard oil. Treatment was continued for 71 days. Decreased testicular and epididymal sperm counts were recorded mostly in dose and time dependent manner in CY-treated rabbits. The serum testosterone concentrations in CY-treated rabbits were significantly lower than those of control group. Degeneration, arrested spermatogenesis and connective tissue (CT) proliferation in testes, while sperm-less seminal plasma and tailless spermatozoa in epididymis of CY-treated rabbits were observed. It was inferred that CY-induced defects in sperms and pathological alterations in testes and epididymis.  相似文献

Various isomeric mixtures of pyrethroids were examined in topical application tests against houseflies, Musca domestica. On the basis of the activities of the separate isomers of 5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl (±)-cis,trans-chrysanthemate, it was shown that when combined in pairs to give the (±)-trans or (±)-cis or (+)-cis,trans mixtures the observed mortalities did not differ from those expected by simple additive action calculated by the harmonic mean. In contrast the (±)-cis,trans mixture showed considerable antagonism with a mortality only 60% of that expected. Similar evaluations using the separate and combined isomers of bioallethrin [(R,S)-3-allyl-2-methyl-4-oxocyclopent-2-enyl (allethronyl) ( + )-trans-[(1R,3R)-chrysanthemate] and the corresponding (+)-cis-(1R,3S)-chrysanthemate indicate antagonism calculated to be correlated with the content of the (R)-isomer of the alcoholic moiety. Hence the activity of the most active isomer of the “allethrin” series, (S)-3-allyl-2-methyl-4-oxocyclopent-2-enyl ( + )-trans-(1R,3R)-chrysanthemate, (S)-bioallethrin, is not fully realised unless it is present in pure form and a substantial part of the value of bioresmethrin (5-benzyl-3-furylmethyl ( + )-trans-chrysanthemate] as a killing agent is lost when the racemic form is used. In racemic mixtures there is mutual antagonism between pairs of isomers so that considerable masking of activity occurs.  相似文献

The oriental tobacco worm, Helicoverpa assulta Guenée, is one of the most destructive pests of tobacco and peppers in China. We determined the susceptibility of H. assulta reared on an artificial diet, chili pepper and tobacco to four insecticides (fenvalerate, phoxim, methomyl, indoxacarb) under laboratory conditions associated with the activities of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), carboxylesterase (CarE) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) in its larvae. H. assulta larvae that were fed with chili pepper were more susceptible to fenvalerate, indoxacarb, and phoxim than those that were fed with tobacco and the artificial diet, but not to methomyl. The larvae that were fed with chili pepper were 3.65-, 2.49-, 1.92- and 2.44-fold more susceptible to fenvalerate, phoxim, methomyl, and indoxacarb than those fed with tobacco, respectively. The AChE activities of H. assulta larvae that were fed with chili pepper and tobacco were 2.12 and 1.07 μmol mg−1 15 min−1, respectively, almost 2-fold difference. The CarE activity of H. assulta larvae that were fed with chili pepper, tobacco and the artificial diet was 4.12, 7.40 and 7.12 μmol mg−1 30 min−1, respectively. Similarly, the GST activities of H. assulta larvae that were fed with chili pepper, tobacco and the artificial diet was 52.02, 79.37 and 80.02 μmol mg−1 min−1, respectively. H. assulta larvae that were fed with chili pepper were more resistance to the tested insecticides. The low activities of AChE and the high activities of CarE and GST lead to H. assulta become more susceptible to the tested insecticides.  相似文献

The insecticidal activities of optical isomers of 3-phenoxybenzyl 1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-2,2-dichlorocyclopropanecarboxylate and related compounds were measured with American cockroaches and their knockdown activities were evaluated with house flies. The activities of the S(?)-isomer of the dichlorocyclopropanecarboxylate were higher than those of the R(+)-isomer. The effects of the compounds on the inward membrane currents induced by a stepdepolarizing pulse in crayfish axonal membranes were examined under voltage clamp conditions by the sucrose gap method. The compounds induced a tail current upon step repolarization of the membrane. The tail current decayed to zero in each record, but developed with time after the start of application of the compound until a steady level was reached. The rate of decay of the tail current observed in axonal membranes treated with the S(?)-isomer was slower than with the R(+)-isomer. The rates of development of the tail current induced by the two isomers were not very different.  相似文献

Glutathione transferase (GST) was purified from the hindgut of grasshopper (Zonocerus variegatus) a polyphagous insect. The purified enzyme had a native molecular weight of 40 kDa and a subunit molecular weight of 19 kDa. The purified enzyme could conjugate glutathione (GSH) with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB), paranitrobenzylchloride, paranitrophenylacetate, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBDCl), and 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene (DCNB) with specific activities of 3.3 ± 0.3, 0.49 ± 0.10, 0.10 ± 0.002, 1.2 ± 0.2, and 1.7 ± 0.4 μmol/min/mg protein, respectively. CDNB appears to be the best substrate with a specificity constant, kcat/Km, of 1.8 ± 0.1 × 10−4 M−1 S−1. The kinetic mechanism of Z. variegatus GST (zvGST) in the conjugation of GSH with some electrophilic substrates appears complex. Conjugation of GSH with DCNB was inhibited by high DCNB concentration, while with NBDCl, as the electrophilic substrates, different values of Km were obtained at high and low concentrations of the substrates. Cibacron blue, hematin, S-hexylglutathione, and oxidized glutathione inhibited the enzyme with I50 values of 0.057 ± 0.004, 0.80 ± 0.2, 33 ± 2 μM, and 5.2 ± 0.3 mM, respectively. The nature of inhibition by each of these inhibitors is either competitive or non-competitive at varying GSH or CDNB as substrates. NADH and NAD+ inhibited the enzyme with an I50 value of 0.4 ± 0.01 and 11 ± 1 mM, respectively. NADH at a concentration of 0.54 mM completely abolished the activity. As part of its adaptation, the flexible kinetic pathway of detoxication by zvGST may assist the organism in coping with various xenobiotics encountered in its preferred food plants.  相似文献

The enantioselective metabolism of racemic fipronil in water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) had been investigated. In this study, the degradation data and the enantiomer fraction (EF) were determined by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a column cellulose-tri-(3, 5-dimethylphe-nylcarbamate)-based chiral stationary phase (CDMPC-CSP). During the uptake phase, the EF value of plant sample increased from 0.50 at 1st day to 0.72 at 63rd day, while it was almost unchanged in water. For the depuration phase, the S- and R-enantiomer of fipronil in water hyacinth plants were degraded 92.22% and 82.07% after 17 days, respectively. The process of the degradation of the two enantiomers was followed first-order kinetics (R2 ? 0.94). Stereoselective behavior was observed in both accumulation and degradation process. In this study, fipronil-sulfone and fipronil-sulfide, the metabolites of fipronil, were detected by GC-MS to show the main metabolic pathway of fipronil in water hyacinth.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of commercial formulation of herbicide 2,4-D on metabolic parameters, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and liver histological evaluation of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen) exposed for 96 h. AChE activity increased in brain (600 and 700 mg L−1) and decreased in all concentrations tested in muscle tissue. Hepatic glycogen was reduced after 2,4-D exposure ranging from 47.67% (400 mg L−1) until 59.3% (700 mg L−1). Hepatic tissue showed lactate reduction at all 2,4-D concentrations tested and glucose was reduced only at 700 mg L−1. In the highest concentration tested hepatic glycogen and glucose reduced instead plasma glucose levels increased. White muscle tissue showed glycogen reduction in fingerlings exposed to all herbicide concentrations and glucose reduction at 700 mg L−1. Muscle lactate levels increase at all 2,4-D concentrations tested. Vacuolation of hepatocytes and changes in its arrangement cords were observed by histologic analysis in group treated with 700 mg/L of 2,4-D. These results suggest that silver catfish exposed to concentrations of 2,4-D near of CL50 showed metabolic and histological response to compensate some stress caused by herbicide exposure. Taken together parameters measured can be used as biomarkers to monitor herbicide contaminated water.  相似文献
