Neuroprotective Effects of Senecio brasiliensis Extract Against Chlorpyrifos-Induced Neurotoxicity and Oxidative Stress in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Chlorpyrifos (CP) is an organophosphate insecticide that induces neurotoxicity through acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition and redox imbalance, raising environmental and occupational health concerns. Plant‐derived compounds from Senecio brasiliensis, native to the Pampa biome, offer multitarget therapeutic potential.

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