Oxidative Biomarkers and Antioxidant Systems in Heavy Metal Phytoremediation: A Critical Appraisal of Diagnostic Value and Causal Contribution
Measurements of oxidative damage and antioxidant activity have become near-obligatory components of experimental phytoremediation research. Malondialdehyde concentration, hydrogen peroxide accumulation, electrolyte leakage and the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase and ascorbate peroxidase are reported in a l...
