Severe Glyphosate - Surfactant Herbicide Poisoning; Successful Treatment - Case Report
Glyphosate-surfactant herbicide is one of the most frequently used herbicides. Glyphosate kills plants by suppressing the shikimic metabolic pathway [1]. The mechanism of toxicity of glyphosate in mammals has been proposed to be the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation [2]. Surfactants are inert ingredients that are added to herbicides to precisely increase the absorption of the active compo...
متن کاملMechanism-specific injury biomarkers predict nephrotoxicity early following glyphosate surfactant herbicide (GPSH) poisoning.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common following glyphosate surfactant herbicide (GPSH) self-poisoning. Serum creatinine (sCr) is the most widely used renal biomarker for diagnosis of AKI although a recent study in rats suggested that urinary kidney injury molecule-1 predicted AKI earlier and better after GPSH-induced nephrotoxicity. We explored the utility of a panel of biomarkers to diagnose GPS...
متن کاملGlyphosate and herbicide resistant plants
There is a common understanding that commercially traded formulations of glyphosate, such as Roundup, can be more toxic than glyphosate alone. Therefore, the EU has already taken measures to remove problematic additives known as POE tallowamine from the market. However, imports of genetically engineered plants resistant to glyphosate are exposed to high dosages of the herbicide in countries whe...
متن کاملBacterial responses to environmental herbicide pollutants (glyphosate and paraquat)
The toxic effect of herbicides on non- target microorganisms may influence degradation of organic matter resulting in changes to nutrient cycling. In the present study, different strains of bacteria incubated in media containing different concentrations of glyphosate and paraquat were assessed over a period of two incubation terms. The deleterious impact of the herbicide was observed as glyphos...
متن کاملSpectrum of corrosive esophageal injury after intentional paraquat or glyphosate-surfactant herbicide ingestion
BACKGROUND Data on the spectrum of corrosive injury to the esophagus after paraquat or glyphosate-surfactant ingestion are sparse in the literature and confined to case studies and brief reports. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the clinical features, degrees of esophageal injury, and clinical outcomes after paraquat or glyphosate herbicide ingestion, and sought to determine what associat...
