Effects of electrolytes, microelements and multiple exposure of Acetamiprid on wistar rats
نویسندگان
چکیده
Subacute toxicity study of acetamiprid was undertaken in 72 female Wistar rats randomly divided into four groups (each consisting of 18individuals). Acetamiprid was administered orally @ 0, 25, 100 and 200 mg/kg of body weight to rats of Groups 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Group 1 served as control. Calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, zinc, copper, iron and cobalt were significantly increased in acetamiprid administered groups. However, no alterations were observed in plasma phosphorus and manganese concentration in acetamiprid treated rats. The repeated oral toxicity study on acetamiprid suggested that it has toxic potential and is a high risk insecticide.
