Abstract. Fouad MR, El-Aswad AF, Aly MI. 2022. Acute toxicity, biochemical and histological of fenitrothion thiobencarb on fish Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Nusantara Bioscience 14: 217-226. The results show that the tested are highly toxic to fish. However, is more (1.6 times) Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758) than thiobencarb. determined 96-h LC50 values using a static bioassay ...

Organophosphate insecticides represent one of the most widely used classes of pesticides with high potential for human exposure in both rural and residential environments. We investigated the interaction of the organophosphothioate pesticide fenitrothion (O,O-dimethyl O-(4-nitro-m-tolyl) phosphorothioate) with the human androgen receptor (AR). Fenitrothion blocked dihydrotestosterone-dependent ...

In the present study, four materials based on boron nitride nanotubes—namely pristine BNNT, C-doped tetrapeptide/BNNT, and tetrapeptide/C-doped BNNT—were examined to evaluate adsorption of organophosphorus pesticides chlorpyrifos fenitrothion. Through a quantum chemical approach molecular electronic structures, impacts C doping tetrapeptide modification nanotubes are clarified. The results reve...

Abstract Fenitrothion is an organophosphorus insecticide usually found in aquatic ecosystems at concentrations the range of low ng/L. In this manuscript we show that 24 h exposure to environmental fenitrothion, from ng/L ?g/L, altered basal locomotor activity, visual-motor response and acoustic/vibrational escape zebrafish larvae. Furthermore, fenitrothion expression gap43a, gfap, atp2b1a, mbp ...

A novel signal-amplified electrochemical assay for the determination of fenitrothion was developed, based on the redox behaviour of organophosphorus pesticides on a glassy carbon working electrode. The electrode was modified using graphene oxide dispersion. The electrochemical response of fenitrothion at the modified electrode was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, current-time curves, and ...

a sensor, based on multi-wall carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (mwcnt/gce), was developed for determination of fenitrothion. determining the surface area of mwcnt/gce showed that this surface is three times more active than that of a glassy carbon electrode. the experimental parameters, such as the amount of mwcnts, ph of the fenitrothion solution, preconcentration potential an...

BACKGROUND Five formulated insecticides (lambda-cyhalothrin at 10 mg m⁻², bifenthrin at 50 mg m⁻², fipronil at 10 mg m⁻², fenitrothion at 50 mg m⁻², imidacloprid at 5 mg m⁻²) and one active ingredient (DDT at 500 mg m⁻²) were evaluated using a surface contact method against early and late instars and adults of two strains of the tropical bed bug, Cimex hemipterus (F.). Synergism of lambda-cyhal...

The extensive use of insecticides in public health and agriculture sectors is the main reason for development of resistance in fleas associated in domestic rodents. The present work was planned to investigate the insecticidal efficacy of Lambda-cyhalothrin, Chlorpyrifos and Fenitrothion against rat flea (Xenopsylla cheopis) infesting rodent species in Giza Governorate, Egypt. The lethal concent...

The genotoxic effects of 4 organophosphorous pesticides, i.e. ekatin, fenitrothion, methylparathion and phorate, were examined employing the micronucleus test in bone marrow cells of the rat. Methylparathion and phorate were found to be mutagenic, while ekatin was weakly mutagenic. The frequency of micronuclei induction by fenitrothion did not differ significantly from that noticed in negative ...

This paper reports a first microbial biosensor for rapid and cost-effective determination of organophosphorus pesticides fenitrothion and EPN. The biosensor consisted of recombinant PNP-degrading/oxidizing bacteria Pseudomonas putida JS444 anchoring and displaying organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) on its cell surface as biological sensing element and a dissolved oxygen electrode as the transduce...
