Detection of oxidative stress and DNA damage in freshwater snail
Next Previous
Abstract
Freshwater snail (Lymnea luteola L.) is good bio indicator of water pollution. Profenofos is tested for its molluscicidal activity against Lymnea luteola L. snail. Deleterious effects on some oxidative stress were detected. Profenofos has a genotoxic effect on Lymnea luteola L. snails.
