Integration between Monitoring and Bio-monitoring Systems to Assessment the Impacts of Normal Levels of Environmental Pollutants

Eman Alaaeldin Abdelfattah

Environmental pollutants such as e.g. phosphates, sulphates, are a serious problem that influences the structure and functioning of ecosystems. The levels of these pollutants were measured in soil, plant, insect, and water samples from field site. Monitoring of possible impact of pollutants concentration was assessed using parameters such as protein carbonyls amount, levels of antioxidant enzymatic system. The potential integration between monitoring and bio monitoring systems is to ensure impacts of environmental contamination on living organisms. The results emphasize that concentration of protein carbonyls in the brain, thoracic muscles and gut of Aiolopus thalasinus (Grasshopper) in the field between each other 6.3, 6.87, and 4.47 fold respectively to each other. The levels of protein carbonyls significantly increase in the field samples gut, brain, thorax 2.22 fold, 1.26 fold and 0.74 fold respectively to each other. Otherwise, the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as CAT, and APOX were significantly affected by the environmental pollutants. Specific pollution resulting from the activity of the environmental pollutants caused comparable adverse effects in the brain, gut and thorax of grasshopper. Therefore, the success of using biochemical parameters as a bio monitoring tools of environmental pollutants levels was discussed.
