Abstract EN
Steroid hormones (H) and tetracycline antibiot-ics (T) are considered two important classes of veterinary therapeutic agents administrated to live-stock for different purposes that have been detect-ed for many environmental matrices in wide con-centrations range.
The effect of progesterone (Pro), androstenedione (4-AD), androstadienedi-one (1,4-AD) and tetracycline antibiotics namely oxytetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline (CTC) and tetracycline (TC) on arugula plants (Eruca sativa) growth and biochemical composition was investi-gated.
Compost and potassium permanganate were applied to minimizing the negative effect of veterinary therapeutic agents on plant.
A pot ex-periment was conducted at the greenhouse of Ag-ricultural Research Center (ARC) at Giza Gover-norate, Egypt.
Soil fortified with 2 mg kg-1 of H and T target compounds individually and combined was used to study their effect on chlorophyll, proline, catalase (CAT), and peroxidase (POD) activities as antioxidant enzyme and plant growth.
Under this experiment conditions; the obtained results showed that veterinary therapeutic agents caused increased the content of proline, however chloro-phyll content was increased as a result of H appli-cation and decreased with T application.
Both CAT and POD activities were increased, especially with the combined mixture application.
Potassium per-manganate or compost can be used for remedia-tion procedures in veterinary therapeutic agents contaminated soils
