propoxure (ppx) is a well-known carbamate insecticide, which has been used for several decades in the world and iran in agriculture and public health programs. however, there is no clear investigation toward its immunotoxicity as yet. in this study, we examined the effects of subchronic i.p. exposure of ppx on humoral (pfc & ha) and cellular (dth) responses, and also monitored t-cell subtypes u...

Insecticides are important candidates for immunotoxicology tests in order to assess the 'No Observable Adverse Effect Level' (NOAEL). Propoxure (PPX), as a carbamate household insecticide, has been used for several decades around the world in agriculture. However, there has been no clear investigation on its immunotoxic potentials. In this study, as Tier I of immunotoxicological screening tests...
