Some Physiological Effects of Bisphenol A on Lemna gibba L., A Free-Floating Aquatic Macrophyte

Abstract

The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of bisphenol A (BPA) on Lemna gibba, a free-floating aquatic macrophyte, in a climate cabinet under controlled conditions. L. gibba was collected from natural water sources in Gaziantep (Türkiye) and acclimatized for two weeks in containers containing 10% nutrient solution. Macrophytes were treated with 1.5, 17.2, and 50 mg/L BPA for 96 hours. Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotenoid, protein, and total soluble carbohydrate contents were declined following BPA application. Contrary to this, an elevation in the contents of NP-SH, H2O2, and malondialdehyde were detected. In conclusion, correlation analyses showed that the changes may be related to BPA-induced oxidative stress.
