Effects of Aldrin-transdiol on neuromuscular facilitation and depression

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pharmacology, 1975
The effects of aldrin-transdiol, one of the active metabolites of the insecticide dieldrin, on evoked transmitter release, neuromuscular facilitation and neuromuscular depression have been studied in frog sartorius nerve-muscle preparations. Conventional

Aldrin, dieldrin and man

Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1968
Abstract The body burden of HEOD is a reflection of the intensity of exposure to aldrin and dieldrin. While determination of HEOD in the blood is a satisfactory means of screening large groups for significant variations in degree of exposure, the more precise definition required for estimating body burdens in experimental subjects or in those exposed

Inhibition of fish brain ATPases by aldrin-transdiol, aldrin, dieldrin and photodieldrin

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1975
The sensitivity of catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, brain ATPase activities to cyclodiene compounds was investigated. The ATPase system showed differences in sensitivity to aldrin, dieldrin and photodieldrin. However, aldrin-transdiol (a more terminal metabolite of dieldrin and reported as a more potent neurotoxin than dieldrin) had no effect on any ...

Soil microbial degradation of Aldrin

Life Sciences, 1968
Abstract The degradation of aldrin by soil microorganisms has been investigated. Ninety-two pure cultures were screened in vitro for aldrin degrading activity. The majority showed some capacity for converting aldrin to dieldrin. Among the fungi, Trichoderma were the most active, followed by Fusarium and Penicillium ...

Determination of aldrin residues in vegetables by the chemical conversion of aldrin to dieldrin

The Analyst, 1968
The determination of aldrin in certain samples of vegetables by gas chromatography has proved to be difficult, as peaks from impurities interfere. To eliminate this disadvantage a method was developed in which aldrin was converted to dieldrin and the amount of dieldrin determined by gas chromatography.

New photometabolites of aldrin

Tetrahedron, 1985
Abstract A reinvestigation of the photochemical transformation of the cyclodiene insecticide aldrin has yielded four new metabolites. Their structures, based on spectroscopic grounds, is now reported.

Chlordane, Aldrin and Dieldrin

1969
Chlordane, Aldrin and Dieldrin, three powerful new insecticides, were discovered in the middle forties and in each case Julius Hyman was intimately involved in the discovery. Hyman held degrees from the Universities of Chicago and Leipzig. In 1930 he gave up a post as research chemist in order to develop his own ideas for the manufacture of drying oils

The Effects of Aldrin on Birds

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1952
The Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine, United States Department of Agriculture and the Wyoming Department of Agriculture carried out a grasshopper control program on approximately 300,000 acres of Wyoming range land during the summer of 1951. Aldrin (Compound 118) was used as the toxicant.
