Disclosing interactions between pesticides and bee infections is of most interest to understand challenges that pollinators are facing and to which extent bee health is compromised. Here, we address the individual and combined effect that three different pesticides (dimethoate, clothianidin and fluvalinate) and an American foulbrood (AFB) infection have on mortality and the cellular immune resp...

Pesticide residues of organophosphate (OP) and organochlorine (OC) of most commonly used classes were monitored in soil samples collected from cotton growing areas in Nawabshah district, Sindh. All the 19 soil samples presently analyzed were found contaminated with used pesticides (i.e. dichlorvos, dimethoate, methyl parathion, fenitrothion, endosulfan, mevinphos, chlorpyriphos and profenofos) ...

The determination of dimethoate using either its native chemiluminescent (CL) properties or its photoinduced chemiluminescence obtained by irradiation with a 15 W low-pressure mercury lamp was studied. Thereby, two flow injection systems (FIA) with and without irradiation were exhaustively optimized and their analytical characteristics studied. Better sensitivity and selectivity was found in ab...

Aim: This study was aimed at evaluating the role of Lycopene on reproduction male Wistar rats exposed to Dimethoate.
 Experimental Design: A completely randomized experimental design using standard methods for analysis. 
 Location and Duration Study: carried out in Animal house, Department Environmental Biology Rivers State University, Nkpolu-Oroworukwo Port Harcourt, Nigeria. GPS 4o4...

This study presents an investigation into the desorption process of pesticides, namely benalaxyl, atrazine, dimethoate, and methomyl, from aqueous solutions in natural Brari clay (Tirana) located at 41°21′14.49″ N 19° 50′17.74″ E Dardha (Korça) 40°31′16.59″ 20°49′33.69″ E. The was fast, where first 2 hours contact, 99.1% atrazine desorbed clay, 90.1% clay. In addition, 80.3% benalaxyl pear 79.2...

The experiment was conducted in local field conditions of Dera Ghazi Khan during the 2021 Kharif season on three different sites. core objective this is to manage Jassid cotton crop a major pest. Five insecticides Dinotefuran, Thiamethoxam, Nitenpyram, Dimethoate and clothianidin were evaluated at recommended doses. treatments laid out randomized complete block designs with replications. Data r...

The within-field spatial distribution of beneficial arthropods was assessed using two-dimensional grids of pitfall traps and suction sampling across two winter wheat fields of 4 and 16 ha, before and after an application of dimethoate. An unsprayed 6 m wide buffer zone was left around half the edge of the larger field. Arthropod numbers fluctuated to varying extents prior to spraying. Two speci...

In the present work a small-scale terrestrial ecosystem (STEM) containing a soil collected from an agricultural field in Central Portugal was used to evaluate the effects of the combination of the herbicide glyphosate and the insecticide dimethoate. Earthworms (Eisenia andrei), isopods (Porcellionides pruinosus), turnip seeds (Brassica rapa), and bait-lamina strips were placed in the STEM. The ...

Several studies have indicated that certain pesticides are present in California rivers at levels which could be harmful to aquatic life. Generally, these studies have been conducted during certain seasons, but not year-round. Since yearround pesticide concentration data was limited for many California rivers having significant amounts of agricultural runoff, water was collected weekly from one...

The extensive and random application of major organic pollutants, mainly pesticides, threatens ecosystems human health. present study was conducted to isolate identify microorganisms from some water resources contaminated with pesticides. We investigated the ability identified microbes grow in spiked dimethoate methomyl. also evaluated potential effect microbial isolates on methomyl biodegradat...
