WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT THROUGH CYTOGENOTOXIC PARAMETERS – A CASE STUDY OF KARAÇOMAK RIVER, TURKEY
Özet
In the present study, the water quality was determined through
cytogenotoxic endpoints by Allium cepa L. assay. Water samples
were collected from nine sites selected according to the pollution
level and large water discharge points into the Karaçomak River,
Turkey. All of the tested water samples had a significant
mitodepressive effect on the root tip cells of A. cepa L. They induced
a significant increase in chromosomal aberrations like stickiness,
anaphase bridges, laggards, and nuclear anomalies, i.e. binucleate
cells, giant cells in vitro. It is suggested that the findings of the
present study are very important to mitigate the environmental
impacts caused by industrial operations on human and ecological
health.
