Impact Assessment of Acetaminophen (paracetamol) on Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Triticum aestivum L. Plants

Abstract:

In the present work, the effects of acetaminophen (paracetamol) on Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Triticum aestivum L. plants, two important vegetables in Romania, were studied. The treatment consisted of sowing the selected plant seed into soil watered with acetaminophen (100 mg kg‒1). The measurements of the foliage characteristics, photosynthetic pigments (chlorophylls and carotenoids), the antioxidant capacity, and the amount of the acetaminophen accumulated in the plants were determined in the first and second month of the plant’s exposure to acetaminophen. In the case of P. vulgaris, β-carotene decreased by 57.74% in the first month and continued the same decreasing trend in the second month of exposure by 58.55%. The acetaminophen decreased the chlorophylls content by 7.08% and 13.19% in comparison with the control plants. In case of T. aestivum plants, the photosynthetic parameters decreased up to 44.80% compared to control plants, and the carotenoids decreased up to 53.82%. Acetaminophen was detected in P. vulgaris stems at a concentration of 0.44 µg g‒1 FW (after the first month of exposure) and at 0.15 µg g‒1 FW (after the second month of exposure). The study results indicated a significantly reduction of foliage physiological activity caused by the acetaminophen, suggesting an alteration of the plants antioxidant capacity .
