Background: Edifenphos, a kind of organophosphate toxins, is used as agricultural fungicides in rice fields. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of temperature on lethal concentration of exposure to edifenphos on Rutilus frisii kutum (Caspian kutum). Methods: The experiment was carried out in static condition and based on instructions of OECD within 10 d under controlled water phy...

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...

Organisms in aquatic environments are exposed to a number of pollutants such as pharmaceutical residues. As such, the aim of the present study is to achieve the Lethal Concentration (LC50) of Povidone-iodine (Betadine) for Cyprinus carpio. To do so, the study employs samples, weighing 4±1 [mean±SD] gr, and carries out an experiment in static condition. Based on OECD instructions, after a period...

Results A 32-year-old Brazilian woman presented with chronic pruritic eyes for three years and recurrent episodes of eyelid inflammation during the last six months in an ophthalmology practice. The clinical finds were conjunctival hyperemia and edema of the eyelids. The hypothesis of perennial allergic conjunctivitis was done and the use of alcaftadine eye drops once a day was prescribed. She r...

background: diazinon is an organophosphorous pesticide which widely found in municipal, agricultural, and urban storm water discharges. the present study was conducted to achieve lethal concentration (lc50) and behavioral changes of rutilus rutilus caspius and hypophthal-micthys molitrix after exposure to lethal concentration of diazinon. methods: the experiment was carried out in static condit...

Abstract Dengue fever vectored by the mosquito Aedes aegypti is one of most rapidly spreading insect-borne diseases. Current reliance dengue vector control mostly on chemical insecticides. Growing insecticide resistance in primary vector, aegypti, limits effectiveness through These insecticides also have negative environmental impacts animals, plants and human health. Myco-biocontrol agents are...
