Exposure of workers to carbaryl

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1975
Since the carbamate pesticide, carbaryl (l-Naphthyl Nmethylcarbamate), was first registered for agricultural use in 1958 it has enjoyed a reputation as one of the safest compounds as far as hazard to man is concerned. While conducting exposure studies on pesticide applicators and formulating plant workers during the last several years our observations ...

Carbaryl—A selective genotoxicant

Environmental Pollution, 1989
Mutagenic effects of carbaryl, a contact insecticide with slight systemic properties, have been investigated employing histidine reversion assay in Salmonella typhimurium strains and in vivo chromosomal aberrations in root meristems of Allium cepa. A detailed investigation revealed that carbaryl did not enhance significantly the frequency of histidine ...

Persistence and biodegradation of carbaryl in soils

Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part B, 1980
The persistence of the methylcarbamate pesticide carbaryl was studied in four soils under flooded conditions. A substantial portion of the pesticide was recovered from all soils even after 15 days of its application, with the recovery ranging from 37% in an alluvial soil to 73% in an acid sulfate soil.

Carbaryl: A Literature Review

1981
Carbaryl (1-naphthyl-N-methylcarbamate; Sevin),1 a reversible inhibitor of cholinesterase, is an agricultural pesticide used in the control of over 150 major pests (BACK 1965). It belongs to the major class of insecticidal compounds, the carbamates.

Cimetidine-carbaryl interaction in humans: evidence for an active metabolite of carbaryl.

The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 1992
The influence of cimetidine on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic response to the insecticide carbaryl has been investigated in isolated human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBC) and after oral administration of 1 mg/kg carbaryl to four normal subjects in the absence or presence of cimetidine (300 mg, 8/hr for 3 days).

Degradation of carbaryl by soil microorganisms

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1977
Four days after carbaryl-naphthyl-1-14C was mixed with soil from a field treated 6 months previously with 4 lb/A of the same insecticide, only 28% of the radiocarbon remained. Approximately 90% remained in soils with no history of pesticide applications.

Spermatotoxic effects of carbaryl in rats

Human & Experimental Toxicology, 1996
The spermatotoxic effect of carbaryl in adult and young male rats has been examined. Carbaryl 50 and 100 mg/kg b.wt. Male fed 5 d/week for 60 days, caused dose and age- dependent decline in epididymal sperm count and sperm motility, an increase in sperm with abnormal morphology.
