Observational analysis reveals oxidative stress impacts biochemical responses in water hyacinth, highlighting its potential for phytoremediation in contaminated aquatic systems.
Water-based drilling muds (WBMs) used in oil and gas operations are a significant source of aquatic pollution due to their complex mixture of heavy metals, hydrocarbons, and chemical additives. Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth), a fast-growing aquatic macrophyte, has been widely studied for its phytoremediation potential. However, the biochemical and oxidative stress responses of E. crassipes in WBM-contaminated aquatic environments remain underexplored.
