In utero Exposure to Atrazine Disrupts Rat Fetal Testis Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Atrazine (ATR) is a commonly used agricultural herbicide and a potential endocrine disruptor that may cause testicular dysgenesis. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of atrazine on fetal testis development after in utero ...

Acute toxicity of atrazine to Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Acute toxicity of atrazine to Oreochromis niloticus was undertaken to find the lethal concentration (LC) 50 of atrazine using fingerlings. Different concentrations were prepared in mg/L.

Health Biomarkers of Pesticide Exposure in Rural Populations of Santa Fe, Argentina: Oxidative Stress and Genotoxicity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to quantify pesticide residues in environmental matrices and plasma and to evaluate their potential effects on oxidative stress and DNA damage in rural populations of Santa Fe province. Soil and rainwater samples were collected, and biological samples and semistructured surveys were obtained from volunteers in three ...

Evaluation of the side effects of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) nanocapsules containing atrazine towards maize plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2015
Poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) nanocapsules have been used as a carrier system for the herbicide atrazine, which is commonly applied to maize. We demonstrated previously that these atrazine containing polymeric nanocapsules were ten-fold more effective

Paraquat, diuron and atrazine for the renewal of chemical weed control in northern Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Au Nord-Cameroun, le paraquat est vulgarisé depuis 1987 et le diuron et l'atrazine depuis 1992, à la suite des recommandations de la SODECOTON et des tests réalisés par l'IRA en collaboration avec le CIRAD. Le paraquat montre une efficacité importante et

Conned by the enemy: the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae lures and kills Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Highly pathogenic isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae attracted Drosophila suzukii. Identifying the responsible compounds for this attraction could help the development of these isolates for pest monitoring and overall pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii, commonly known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a highly invasive and ...

Target‐site and non‐target‐site mechanisms confer multiple herbicide resistance in waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) accessions from Wisconsin

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The A101 accession is the first confirmed case of hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus in Wisconsin, and the first report of P450s associated with atrazine resistance in A. tuberculatus globally. Abstract BACKGROUND A preliminary screening identified a multiple herbicide‐resistant waterhemp, Amaranthus tuberculatus ...

Integrated genomic and transcriptomic approaches reveal oxidative stress adaptation mechanisms in a mesotrione‐resistant Amaranthus tuberculatus biotype

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrated GWAS and transcriptomics in a Canadian waterhemp biotype reveal mesotrione resistance is polygenic and metabolically driven. Significant SNPs and 187 herbicide‐responsive genes point to enhanced redox homeostasis, glutathione‐linked detoxification, lipid/secondary metabolism, and oxidative stress responses. Resistance arises from coordinated,

Optimization and kinetics studies on biodegradation of atrazine using mixed microorganisms

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2013
In this work, degradation of atrazine was carried out in batch reactors using mixed microorganisms obtained from pharmaceutical wastewater sludge. The effects of process parameters like pH, temperature, inoculum concentration, and agitation speed on ...

Degradation of Residual Herbicide Atrazine in Agri-Food and Washing Water

open access: yesFoods, 2022
Atrazine, an herbicide used to control grassy and broadleaf weed, has become an essential part of agricultural crop protection tools. It is widely sprayed on corn, sorghum and sugar cane, with the attendant problems of its residues in agri-food and ...
