Active Versus Passive Biomonitoring of Air Quality: Genetic Damage and Bioaccumulation of Trace Elements in Flower Buds of Tradescantia pallida var. purpurea

Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 2016
This study aimed to assess the micronuclei formation in Tradescantia pallida var. purpurea through active and passive biomonitoring of air genotoxicity and its relation with abiotic environmental factors, and to analyze the concentrations of trace elements in flower buds and leaves, in order to determine the importance of these parameters to ...

Assessing the influence of the time of exposure of Tradescantia pallida var. purpurea for biomonitoring atmospheric air genotoxicity

2015
Tradescantia pallida (Rose) D.R. Hunt var. purpurea Boom is used to assess the genotoxicity of atmospheric air due to the formation of micronuclei (MCN) in meiotic tetrads after acute exposure. We aimed to investigate whether there is a quantitative relationship between MCN formation and the amount of hours of acute air-exposure of branches with flower

Air quality biomonitoring in the Guaiúba Chemical Park using Tradescantia pallida var. purpurea: genotoxic effects assessed by micronucleus and stamen hair mutation bioassays associated with climate data

Caderno Pedagógico
Atmospheric pollution affects human health and ecosystem stability, being linked to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Biomonitoring with Tradescantia pallida var. purpurea (Rose) D.R. Hunt is a sensitive, low-cost method for detecting genotoxic effects of air pollutants.
