White stork ( Ciconia ciconia L .) population increased dramatically in Portugal over the last decade, leading to an increase in nesting and roosting in the support towers for the electric distribution lines. As a consequence, there are frequent bird

White Storks (Ciconia ciconia L.) may cause severe outages in electric networks leading to poor power quality service. Furthermore, bird fatalities often occur as consequence of electrocution. Therefore, equipment damages, economical losses of indust

Growth of potato tuber calli cells (non-green) is inhibited by 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) as a consequence of perturbation of membrane integrity. MCPA also depresses ATP content with simultaneous increase of ADP and AMP, i.e., the ene

Potato tubers and turnip roots were used to prepare purified mitochondria for laboratory practical work in the teaching of the citric acid cycle (TCA cycle). Plant mitochondria are particularly advantageous over the animal fractions to demonstrate th

Rat liver mitochondria are much more susceptible to protein oxidation induced by paraquat than plant mitochondria. The unsaturated index and the peroxidizability index are higher in rat than in potato tuber. The levels of superoxide dismutase and glu

Tamoxifen (TAM), a non-steroid antiestrogen, is the mostly used drug for chemotherapy and chemoprevention of breast cancer. However, the mechanisms by which TAM inhibits cell proliferation in breast cancer are not fully understood. TAM strongly incor

Microorganisms are very powerful tools for the supply of information about the toxic effects of lipophilic compounds, since an impairment of cell growth usually occurs as a result of perturbations related, in most cases, with the partition of toxican

The effects of two insecticides isomers, alpha- and beta-endosulfan, on the passive proton permeability of large unilamellar vesicles (LUV) reconstituted with dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) or mitochondrial lipids were reported. In DPPC (LUV)

The mechanism of Cr(VI)-induced toxicity in plants and animals has been assessed for mitochondrial bioenergetics and membrane damage in turnip root and rat liver mitochondria. By using succinate as the respiratory substrate, ADP/O and respiratory con
