a 'worst case' laboratory method was employed for evaluating total effect of four pesticides (imidacloprid, dichlorvos, pymetrozine and abamectin) on the nymphs mortality and adults reproduction in orius albidipennis reuter (hemiptera: anthocoridae). the bioassays were carried out in laboratory using drum cell method, under controlled conditions of: 27±1?c, rh of 65±5% and 16-h photo ...

th th Abstract: Snails Lymnaea accuminata, were exposed to 1.4 mg/l (1/10 of 96 hrLC50) and 2.8 mg/l(1/5 of 96hr LC50) of insecticide Dichlorvos. Initially at 24 hours, at both the concentrations Increase in respiratory rate is noted. At 48 hours stage, increase in respiratory rate is noticed at both the sublethal concentrations. At 72 hours stage in both the sublethal concentrations reduction ...

In order to determine the level of residual Dichlorvos pesticide on strawberry fruits in research greenhouse conditions in crop year of 2011-2012, a study was carried out in Education and Research Center for Greenhouse Productions of Islamic Azad University of Khorasgan of Isfahan. Factorial experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design with two factors of pesticide consump...

The present study was carried out to search whether organophosphate pesticides affect the mechanical properties of the thoracic aorta. Wistar female rats (aged 6-8 weeks) were assigned randomly to a control group and groups treated with either dichlorvos or chlorpyriphos for 90 days at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day. After that period, animals were killed and thoracic aorta strips in longitudinal direct...

Dichlorvos is an acutely toxic organophosphorous pesticide that is known as a classical acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) inhibitor. Here, the brain AChE from the important Amazonian fish tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) was assayed in the presence of this insecticide and also of deltamethrin, a classical sodium and potassium channel inhibitor (negative control). Four tissue homogenates we...

This study was conducted to investigate the metabolic defensive mechanism in the larvae of African palm weevil (Rynchophorus phoenicis) administered with dichlorvos (2,2-dichlorovinyl dimethylphosphate) solution. Bioassay experiment with dichlorvos was conducted on the larva and glutathione-utilizing enzyme activities were determined in the major organs: fat body, gut, and head of R. phoenicis ...

Formulation components of organophosphate insecticidal preparations might affect their toxic action in animals. The objective of this study was to examine and compare the acute toxicity and cholinesterase inhibition in seven to 14-day-old chicks dosed orally with dichlorvos and diazinon in standard veterinary and agricultural formulations. The acute (24 h) oral median lethal doses (LD50) of the...

Acylpeptide hydrolases (APHs) catalyze the removal of N-acylated amino acids from blocked peptides. Like other prolyloligopeptidase (POP) family members, APHs are believed to be important targets for drug design. To date, the binding pose of organophosphorus (OP) compounds of APH, as well as the different OP compounds binding and inducing conformational changes in two domains, namely, α/β hydro...
