Our aim was to evaluate the effects of exposure to tannery wastewater on mortality and/or antioxidant enzyme system in adult wild-type Canton-S Drosophila melanogaster. Exposure to tannery wastewater induced a concentration-dependent lethality in adult Canton-S flies. Tannery wastewater was able to alter antioxidant enzyme activities, specifically glutathione peroxidase-like and glutathione S-transferase, in adult Canton-S D. melanogaster. We conclude that D. melanogaster is a reliable model to evaluate the toxicity induced by tannery wastewater.
我们的目的是评估接触制革废水对成年野生型 Canton-S 黑腹果蝇死亡率和/或抗氧化酶系统的影响。暴露于制革废水中会导致成年 Canton-S 果蝇产生浓度依赖性的致死率。制革废水能够改变成年 Canton-S D. melanogaster 中的抗氧化酶活性，特别是谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶样和谷胱甘肽 S-转移酶。我们得出结论，D. melanogaster 是评估制革废水诱导毒性的可靠模型。
