The aim of this study was to assess the use of pesticides on farms located in the Lambedor River watershed in Guatambu, State of Santa Catarina, as well as to determine, by micronucleus testing, the risk of genotoxic impact. Samples from locally collected Cyprinus carpio, Hypostomus punctatus, Rhamdia quelen and Oreochromis niloticus gave evidence of a mean increase in micronuclei frequency from 6.21 to 13.78 in 1,000 erythrocytes, a clear indication of the genotoxic potenciality of pesticide residues in regional dams, and their significant contribution to local environmental contamination.
本研究旨在评估圣卡塔琳娜州瓜图巴市兰贝多河流域农场使用农药的情况,并通过微核试验确定遗传毒性影响的风险。对当地采集的鲤鱼、斑点叉尾鮰、锯脂鲤和罗非鱼的样本进行分析,结果表明,1000 个红细胞中的微核频率从 6.21 增加到 13.78,这清楚地表明了区域水坝中农药残留的遗传毒性潜力,以及它们对当地环境污染的重大贡献。
