Abstract
BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. The effects of fabric dyes (16 items), heavy metal ions (Cd2+, Pb2+, Sn2+, Hg2+, and Cu2+) and gaseous waste of steam power plants (H2S, SO2, NO, NH3) on the peroxidase-dependent immunity in Pisum sativum were studied using the method of luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence. Copper compares to mercury according to its toxicity. The fabric dyes at 10-5 M decrease the chemiluminescence of plants by 50%. Hydrogen sulfide is the most toxic among gaseous wastes. Since the peroxidase system plays an important role in the struggle of plants against various infections, it is necessary to monitor the effects of xenobiotics dissolved in water on plant immunity.
