The paper presents the results of studies on selecting a solid sorption material for absorbing liquid crop protection agents which permeate samples of protective clothing fabrics. The sorption materials were investigated and selected with an assumption that they should have a high recovery coefficient for biologically active substances, used as active ingredients in crop protection agents, at a...

The cypermethrin (synthetic pyrethroids) has shows strong piscicidal activity in freshwater teleost fish Colisa fasciatus for all the exposure periods (24h or 96h) in time as well as dose dependent manner. The LC values decreases from 0.009 (24h) to 0.006 (96h) in winter season (water temp. 16°C) and 0.06 (24h) to 50 0.02 (96h) in summer season (water temp. 28°C). Sub-lethal doses (40 and 60% o...

The aim of the present study was to find the clinical and hematological alterations in female rabbits exposed orally to Malathion and Cypermethrin at a dose of 75mg/kg body weight for seven days through gavage. Animals were divided into three groups i.e. A, B and C comprised of three rabbits each. Group A was considered as control. Group B was intoxicated with Malathion while C was Cypermethrin...

Efficacy of some synthetic and biopesticides against pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) damage in chickpea was studied at the Regional Agricultural Research Station, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh during rabi cropping season of 2004-05. Synthetic and biopesticides reduced pod borer damage significantly. Significantly lowest pod damage was observed in cypermethrin (5.75%) and HNPV (5.86%) spra...

Horn fly susceptibility to insecticides was evaluated in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, from October 2000 to September 2002. Insecticide bioassays (n=57) were conducted in 38 ranches from 14 municipalities throughout the state. Horn flies from wild populations were collected on cattle and exposed to filter papers impregnated with cypermethrin, permethrin, or diazinon and mortality was...

BACKGROUND The German cockroach, Blattella germanica is a major hygienic pest and mechanical vector for pathogenic agents in hospitals and residential areas. The development of insecticide resistance is a serious problem in controlling of this pest. Toxicity of four commonly used insecticides (permethrin, cypermethrin, malathion and chlorpyrifos) against two hospital- collected strains of the G...

In recent times, human cell-based assays are gaining attention in assessments of immunomodulatory effects of chemicals. In the study here, the possible effects of cypermethrin and mancozeb on lymphocyte proliferation and proinflammatory (tumor necrosis factor (TNF-) α) and immunoregulatory cytokine (interferon- (IFN-) γ, interleukins (IL) 2, 4, 6, and 10) formation in vitro were investigated. H...

In the present study, we examined insecticidal effect of Carifend® (BASF AG, Ludwigshafen, Germany; 163.2 mg m−2), an alpha-cypermethrin-coated polyester net, as well Carifend-like nets containing different rates alpha-cypermethrin, specifically 10, 30, 80, and 325 m−2, against two major stored tobacco insect pests, i.e., Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Anobiidae) Ephestia elutel...

freshwater fish cirrhinus mrigala were exposed to lethal concentration (5 mg/l) for 1,2,3,4 days and sublethal concentration (1 mg/l) for 1,7,14,21 days of cypermethrin to examine the enzymes activity, in functionally three different tissues namely, gill, liver and muscle. activities of aspartate aminotransferase (aat), alanine aminotransferase (alat) and glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) increased...

Cypermethrin is a widely used insecticide belongs to type II pyrethroids. It highly in developing countries control many species of insects as it plays an important role pest control. Vitamin C intracellular antioxidant against insecticides. The aim the present study analyze toxic effects cypermethrin (CYP) and positive effect vitamin (VC) with graded doses (0 CYP, 200 VC, 12 CYP CYP+200 VC mg/...
