Context
Mosses are environmental biomarkers used for the long term accumulation and bioaccumulation assessment of atmospheric particles. Organic and inorganic pollutants could be responsible for oxidative stress and biological modifications. The biomarkers are here the MDA concentration by HPLC (MalonDiAldehyde resulting from membranes lipoperoxidation), the 8 hydroxy-2- deoxyguanosine concentration by ELISA (DNA adducts) and the DNA fragmentation (DNA ladder, results shown)
