Descrição
Resumo:Phytoremediation is a strategy to eliminate or reduce the undesirable effects of pollutants in the environment. This technology can be enhanced if the mechanisms by which it occurs are known. Previously in our laboratory, we have found that the plant Ocimum basilicum L. has a phytoremediating effect of endosulfan, a persistent toxic pesticide in the environment. To optimize the phytoremediation of endosulfan by O. basilicum L. we propose to study one of the possible mechanisms involved, the activity of the enzyme Glutathione S-Transferase (GST). It has been described that GST is involved as part of the defense of plants towards exogenous compounds.
