The in vitro Effect of Neonicotinoid Insecticides Imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam on Glutathione Reductase Enzyme Activity from Baker's Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
Öz
In this study, glutathione reductase from baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) (GR) exposed to 0, 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 mg/L neonicotinoid insecticides imidacloprid (IMI) and thiamethoxam (TMX). Under the exposure of 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 mg/L concentrations, % GR activity alterations were calculated as -1.01; +0.50; 0.00; 0.00 and -1.01 in IMI applications, while these alterations were calculated as -2.91; -1.46; -0.97; -1.46 and -0.97 in TMX applications, respectively. According to control activity, no statistical changes were observed in GR activities (p>0.05). The present study showed that the tested neonicotinoid insecticides did not cause significant changes in GR enzyme activities.
