Research Interests

1. Study of the role of “scavenger” of metallothionein in the cells of the genus Tetrahymena treated with heavy metals. 3. Evaluation of accumulation of heavy metals metallothioneins glutathione used as animal models of human pathologies MAB coloration and TUNEL. 6. Study of two mugilidae Teleostei Liza aurata e Chelon labrosus taken from natural environments with differing levels of pollution
