Dieldrin

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1969
Clinical symptoms and gross autopsy findings in two cases of dieldrin poisoning are presented. Studies in one child suggest that redistribution of the insecticide into fat is slow and that the more rapid redistribution of dieldrin is from brain to muscle, which may account for termination of seizures.

Toxicity of Dieldrin and Endrin to Bats

Nature, 1965
IN the course of our investigation of the storage and mobilization of lipids and pesticides in Chiroptera, it became necessary to obtain some data regarding the toxicity of various insecticides to bats. In a previous paper we reported that the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus, was extremely sensitive to DDT1.

Organochlorine insecticides lindane and dieldrin and their binary mixture disturb calcium homeostasis in dopaminergic PC12 cells.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2012
Current hypotheses link long-term environmental exposure of humans to persistent organochlorine (OC) insecticides lindane (HCH) and dieldrin (HEOD) to the development of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's disease.

The Mothproofing of Wool with Dieldrin

Textile Research Journal, 1958
Dieldrin does not react with wool but, during treatment in aqueous emulsions, some of the insecticide penetrates the fibers. This small amount, sufficient to mothproof the wool, is not removed by the usual drycleaning solvents which do not cause swelling, but can be extracted completely by hot methanol or acetone.

Stimulation of dieldrin metabolism by DDT

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1967
Abstract The excretion of polar metabolites of dieldrin by DDT-treated female rats greatly exceeded that by rats given only dieldrin- 14 C. Increased metabolite excretion was observed in both feces and urine, the relative increase being greater in the urinary products.

Biodegradation of dieldrin by a soil fungus isolated from a soil with annual endosulfan applications.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2010
An aerobic dieldrin-degrading fungus, Mucor racemosus strain DDF, was isolated from a soil to which endosulfan had been annually applied for more than 10 years until 2008.

Toxicity of Dieldrin to Fish

Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 1957
Abstract Toxicity bio-assays of run-off water from an area treated with dieldrin at the rate of 4.66 pounds per acre indicated that the run-off from the first rain following treatment was toxic to fathead minnows, Pimephales promelas, at a dilution of one in three.

A Case of Fatal Dieldrin Poisoning

Medicine, Science and the Law, 1979
Dieldrin was developed in the United States and was made available commercially in 1948. Chemically, dieldrin is 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 10-hexachloro-6, 7-epoxy-1, 4, 4a, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8a-octahydro-1, 4, 5, 8-dimethanonaphthalene and forms, together with aldrin and endrin, a triumvirate of insecticides derived from hexachlorodicyclopentadiene.

The problem of a replacement for dieldrin

1997
For more than 30 years the main strategy for preventive control of the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria (Forskal, 1775) has been based on the correct use of an organochlorine, dieldrin. This insecticide was used because it was effective at very low doses for locust control, activated both by contact and ingestion, had a long persistence, a long ...
