Extensive and misuse of pesticides can cause to toxicity humans pollution in the environment. The primary objective this study was determine insecticide load agricultural soils Troia, located Troia National Park Çanakkale Province (Türkiye) by QuEChERS method. For method verification, blank soil samples were spiked at two levels pesticides. overall recovery 84.8% with a relative standard deviat...

the effect of two insecticides, imidacloprid and pyriproxyfen, were investigated on some biological parameters of ladybird beetle menochilus sexmaculatus (f.) (coleoptera: coccinellidae) under laboratory condition. theladybird beetle were exposed to insecticides by ingestion of the common pistachio psylla, agonoscena pistaciae burckhardt and lauterer (hemiptera: psyllidae) (prey). for imidaclop...

laboratory and field experiments were conducted to determine the efficacy of some insecticides on the control of sarta longhorned beetle, aeolesthes sarta solsky adults and larvae. in the laboratory, three pairs of mated and non-oviposited adults were released on the logs of field elm, ulmus minor mill that had been treated with chlorpyrifos, carbaryl, permethrin or imidacloprid. in the field e...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of some technological processes on the residual levels of imidacloprid in strawberry fruits and products. according to their half-life (t1/2) values, strawberry fruits can be safely harvested for human consumption 7.4 days after spraying. the removal ratio of imidacloprid residue in strawberries was in the range of 9.9–30.55% by washing with t...

Neonicotinoids are now the third most abundantly used insecticides worldwide and account for over 80% of the seed treatment market. They are used for pest management on hundreds of crops in agriculture, horticulture, and forestry. Neonicotinoids are also used to control insect pests in pets such as dogs, as well as in livestock and in aquaculture. These insecticides are registered for use in ov...

The common pistachio psylla, Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt and Lauterer (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), is a key pest in pistachio orchards in Iran. Chemical control is a common method to manage this pest. Compatibility between natural enemies and pesticides is a primary concern in programs of integrated pest management of the psyllid pest. In this research, susceptibility of fifth instar nymphs of A...

Effective methods are needed to protect ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) from emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), an invasive buprestid that has killed millions of North American ash (Fraxinus spp.) trees. We randomly assigned 175 ash trees (11.5-48.1 cm in diameter) in 25 blocks located in three study sites in Michigan to one of seven insecticide treatments in ...

The efficacy of oral treatment with a chewable tablet containing afoxolaner 2.27% w/w (NexGard(®), Merial) administered orally was assessed in eight dogs diagnosed with generalised demodicosis and compared with efficacy in eight dogs under treatment with a topical combination of imidacloprid/moxidectin (Advocate(®), Bayer). Afoxolaner was administered at the recommended dose (at least 2.5 mg/kg...

Neonicotinoids represent the most used class of insecticides worldwide, and their precursor, imidacloprid, is the most widely marketed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of imidacloprid on the activity of hepatic δ-aminolevulinate dehydratase (δ-ALA-D), protective effect of potential antioxidants against this potential effect and presence of chemical elements in the constitution ...

Sorption-desorption is one of the most important processes affecting the leaching of pesticides through soil because it controls the amount of pesticide available for transport. Subsurface soil properties can significantly affect pesticide transport and the potential for groundwater contamination. This research characterized the sorption-desorption of imidacloprid (1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridinyl)-met...
