The metabolic resistance of Nilaparvata lugens to chlorpyrifos is mainly driven by the carboxylesterase CarE17

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
The involvement of carboxylesterases (CarEs) in resistance to chlorpyrifos has been confirmed by the synergism analysis in Nilaparvata lugens. However, the function of specific CarE gene in chlorpyrifos resistance and the transcriptional regulatory ...

Gulf War Syndrome: A role for organophosphate induced plasticity of locus coeruleus neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Gulf War syndrome is a chronic multi-symptom illness that has affected about a quarter of the deployed veterans of the 1991 Gulf War. Exposure to prolonged low-level organophosphate insecticides and other toxic chemicals is now thought to be responsible.

A novel chlorpyrifos hydrolase CPD from Paracoccus sp. TRP: Molecular cloning, characterization and catalytic mechanism

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2018
Background: Biodegradation is a reliable approach for efficiently eliminating persistent pollutants such as chlorpyrifos. Despite many bacteria or fungi isolated from contaminated environment and capable of degrading chlorpyrifos, limited enzymes ...

Evaluating of chlorpyrifos-degrading by bacterial strains in mineral salt minimum and in the soil

open access: yesHo Chi Minh City Open University Journal of Science - Engineering and Technology, 2020
Four bacterial strains degraded chlorpyrifos, isolated from agricultural soil, were used as a source of bacteria to investigate their ability to decompose chlorpyrifos in mineral salt minimum and the soil.

Effects of Sublethal Concentrations of Chlorpyrifos on Olfactory Learning and Memory Performances in Two Bee Species, Apis mellifera and Apis cerana

open access: yesSociobiology, 2017
Chlorpyrifos is a widely used organophosphorus insecticide. The acute oral 24 h median lethal dose (LD50) value of chlorpyrifos in Apis mellifera and in Apis cerana was estimated to assess differential acute chlorpyrifos toxicity in the two bee species ...

Organophosphate pesticide (Chlorpyrifos): Environmental menace; study reveals genotoxicity on plant and animal cells

open access: yesEnvironmental Challenges, 2021
Usage of chemicals for the protection of food grains in crop plants creates huge contamination to the environment. Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate insecticide having potential in suppression of insects and pests and thus is a part of many commercial ...

Study of the protective role of polyphenol antioxidants from extracted Damiana (Turnera diffusa Willd) against chlorpyrifos pesticide-induced toxicity in male rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bioscience and Applied Research, 2023
Pesticides have been associated with oxidative stress and enhanced reactive oxygen species generation (chlorpyrifos). This study aimed to determine whether extracted damiana (Turnera diffusa Willd) may effectively prevent chlorpyrifos-induced toxicity in

Biodegradation of chlorpyrifos and its hydrolysis product 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol by a new fungal strain Cladosporium cladosporioides Hu-01. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Intensive use of chlorpyrifos has resulted in its ubiquitous presence as a contaminant in surface streams and soils. It is thus critically essential to develop bioremediation methods to degrade and eliminate this pollutant from environments.
