Excretion of Dieldrin in the Milk of Cows Fed Dieldrin-Sprayed Forage and Technical Dieldrin

open access: bronzeJournal of Dairy Science, 1954
Summary Dieldrin was detected in the milk of four cows when fed liay made from forage that had been sprayed with 3.5 and 7.0oz. of dieldrin per acre. The average daily dieldrin intakes were 0.10 and 0.75mg. per kilogram of body weight when the cows were fed the hays sprayed with 3.5 and 7.0oz. of dieldrin per acre, respectively.

Microbial Degradation of Aldrin and Dieldrin: Mechanisms and Biochemical Pathways

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
As members of the organochlorine group of insecticides, aldrin and dieldrin are effective at protecting agriculture from insect pests. However, because of excessive use and a long half-life, they have contributed to the major pollution of the water/soil ...

Level of Organochlorine Pesticide in Prediabetic and Newly Diagnosed Diabetes Mellitus Patients with Varying Degree of Glucose Intolerance and Insulin Resistance among North Indian Population [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2021
Background Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) exposure may induce an endocrine disruption which may lead to the risk of developing diabetes through alteration and disturbance of glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, and destruction of β-cells.

A Guideline Value for Dioxin‐Like Compounds in Marine Sediments

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 257-271, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Sediments to be dredged as part of the installation of a harbor crossing in Sydney, Australia, contained measurable concentrations of dioxin‐like compounds. To assess the suitability of these sediments for ocean disposal, a defensible sediment quality guideline value (SQGV) for dioxin‐like compounds, expressed as pg toxic equivalent (TEQ)fish ...

A Dieldrin Case Study: Another Evidence of an Obsolete Substance in the European Soil Environment

open access: yesAgriculture, 2021
Soil constitutes a central environmental compartment that, due to natural and anthropogenic activities, is a recipient of several contaminants. Among them, organochlorine pesticides are of major concern, even though they have been banned decades ago in ...

Exposures to pesticides and risk of cancer: Evaluation of recent epidemiological evidence in humans and paths forward

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 152, Issue 5, Page 879-912, 1 March 2023., 2023
Abstract Knowledge of the role in cancer etiology of environmental exposures as pesticides is a prerequisite for primary prevention. We review 63 epidemiological studies on exposure to pesticides and cancer risk in humans published from 2017 to 2021, with emphasis on new findings, methodological approaches, and gaps in the existing literature.

The effects of acute toxicity of dieldrin on HeLa Cell Line: An In Vitro assessment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Health Engineering, 2023
Aim: Among environmental pollutants, there is a great concern about organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) due to their environmental persistence, accumulation in the food chain, detection in breast milk, and their ability to accumulate in adipose tissues. Due
