dc.description.abstractIn this study, the impact of exposure to a glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH) and a trifloxystrobin-based fungicide (TBF) on Daphnia magna in diverse feeding environments was assessed through the analysis of morphological and biochemical markers. The test organisms selected for analysis were Chlorella vulgaris and D. magna. First, the 48-hour median lethal concentrations (LC50) of GBH and TBF for D. magna were determined to be 253.1 mg/L and 20.7 mu g/L, respectively. Secondly, the lethality, length, width, and spin length of D. magna were evaluated following exposure to sublethal pesticide concentrations, selected based on the LC50 values, in different feeding environments. Thirdly, the activities of glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase, catalase (CAT), carboxylesterase, and acetylcholinesterase, as well as the levels of reduced glutathione, were measured in D. magna exposed to sublethal pesticide concentrations in different feeding environments. Both pesticides caused an increase in CAT activity, while GBH also caused an increase in GST activity in the unfed and mixed-fed groups. Conversely, it can be concluded that feeding with C. vulgaris reduces oxidative stress and toxic effects since there was a lesser increase in GST and CAT activities in the C. vulgaris-fed group for both pesticides, similar to the lethality. {GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT}
