Study of Cyanobacteria Sensitivity to Toxic Effect of Heavy-metal Salts
Year: 2008
Type: article
Abstract: In the article, the results have been presented of experimental studies for assessment of sensitivity of cyanobacteria strains Synechocystis sp. РСС 6803 and Synechocystis sp. CALU 713 to toxic effect of heavy-metal salts in environmental conditions with different temperature and lighting. High sensitivity of Synechocystis sp. РСС 6803 и CALU 713 to heavy-metal salts in aqueous medium was observed, their toxicity became apparent by low concentrations and increased by environmental temperature and light parameters lowering. The study materials allowed to recommend these strains for use as biological test-objects both for indication of reservoir chemical pollution and for study of toxicity parameters of harmful chemical substances in the experiment.
