The aim of this study was conducted to subchronic toxic effects separate and combined using of maleic hydrazide and ethephon in female mice. Treatment group divided into 9 groups according to chemicals’ doses and compared with controls. Three separate maleic hydrazide doses (100-200-400 mg/kg/day, in feed) and ethephon (50-100-150 mg/kg/day, in water) were given alone and in combination during 45 days. At the end of the study, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, urea and creatinine levels in blood samples were evaluated. Liver and kidney tissues were taken and examined histopathologically. As a result, alone usages of maleic hydrazide caused liver, kidney toxicity. Toxic effects were clearer in liver; however with ethephon, toxicity was more moderate than maleic hydrazide. In combination, glomerulonephritis were seen in the highest doses. As a result, plant growth promoters could be harmful on kidney and liver. Producers and consumers should become more conscious about the toxic effects of these chemicals

Bitki büyüme hormonlarının farelerdeki subkronik toksik etkileri
Year 2008,
Volume: 55 Issue: 1, 17 - 21, 01.06.2008
Bu çalışma, maleik hidrazid ve etefonun tek ve kombine kullanımının dişi farelerdeki subkronik toksik etkilerini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapıldı. Çalışma grupları kimyasal maddelerin dozlarına göre 9 gruba ayrıldı ve bunlar kontrol grubuyla karşılaştırıldı. Maleik hidrazid (100-200-400 mg/kg/gün, yemle) ve etefon (50-100-150 mg/kg/gün, su ile)’nun 3 farklı dozu tek ve kombinasyon şeklinde 45 gün süresince verildi. Çalışmanın sonunda, kan örneklerindeki aspartat aminotransferaz, alanin aminotransferaz, üre ve kreatinin düzeyleri değerlendirildi. Karaciğer, böbrek dokuları alınarak histopatolojik inceleme yapıldı. Maleik hidrazidin tek başına kullanımında karaciğer ve böbrekde toksisiteye sebep olduğu belirlendi. Bu toksisite özellikle karaciğerde daha belirgin olmakla birlikte, etefonun toksistesitesi maleik hidrazidden daha ılımlıydı. Kombinasyonlarda ise, yüksek dozlarda glomerulonefritis görüldü. Sonuç olarak, bitki büyüme hormonları karaciğer ve böbrek üzerinde zararlı etkileri olabilmektedir. Üretici ve tüketicilerin bu kimyasalların toksik etkileri konusunda daha çok bilinçlendirilmesi gerekmektedir
