Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biochemical Sciences Candidate: Nikoleta Dojčanská Supervisor: prof. Ing. Barbora Szotáková, Ph.D Title of diploma thesis: Environmental risks of anthelmintics Anthelmintics are drugs used in human and veterinary medicine for the treatment and prophylaxis of infectious diseases caused by parasites- helminths. They are admittedly beneficial to the treated organisms. However, their overall effect on the ecosystem has not yet been sufficiently explored. Anthelmintics, together with their metabolites, enter the environment in multiple ways. One possibility is directly through urine and excrements of treated livestock or indirectly by leakage of contaminated manure into surface and groundwater. Such pollution has an effect on various animal organisms and plants that have the ability to uptake xenobiotics and remove them through metabolic pathways. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of antihelmintics ivermectin and fenbendazole on soybean plants (Glycine max). We investigated the concentration of total phenolic compounds spectrophotometrically using the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Using the colorimetric method of aluminum chloride, we found the concentration of flavonoids in soybean plants. The concentration of isoflavons-...
