Absorption and Toxicity of Dieldrin

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1952
Conclusions1. Dieldrin produced chronic toxicity in rabbits when it was applied once a week at 70 mg/kilo body weight. Less than 30 mg/kilo produced no symptoms. 2.

Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 618-639, April 2026.
The sterile insect technique has been effectively used for decades, and an important component is the availability of sex separation systems, in particular genetic sexing strains. Classical approaches, such as irradiation‐induced chromosomal translocations, have yielded stable strains for species like the Mediterranean fruit fly.

Caracterización de plaguicidas organoclorados en agua y sedimentos en el río Tucutunemo, Venezuela - Characterization of organochlorated pesticides in water and sediments, Tucutunemo River, Venezuela

Tecnología y ciencias del agua, 2018
En esta investigación se propone caracterizar plaguicidas organoclorados (POC), y parámetros fisicoquímicos en agua y sedimentos del río Tucutunemo. La información obtenida servirá para desarrollar posteriormente un modelo de transporte de contaminantes.

Shellfish Tissue Monitoring in Piscataqua Region Estuaries 2010 and 2011 [PDF]

, 2012
The goal of this project was to provide data for two PREP indicators of estuarine condition: TOX1 and TOX3. These two indicators report on “Shellfish tissue concentrations relative to FDA standards” and “Trends in shellfish tissue contaminant ...

Implications of bio-efficacy and persistence of insecticides when indoor residual spraying and longlasting insecticide nets are combined for malaria prevention. [PDF]

, 2012
Bio-efficacy and residual activity of insecticides used for indoor residual spraying (IRS) and long-lasting insecticide nets (LLINs) were assessed against laboratory-reared and wild populations of the malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis in south eastern

Genomic Signatures of Microgeographic Adaptation in Anopheles coluzzii Across Urban, Rural, and Forested Environments in Gabon

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 8, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Species distributed across heterogeneous environments often evolve locally adapted populations, but understanding how these persist in the presence of homogenizing gene flow remains puzzling. In Gabon, Anopheles coluzzii, a major African malaria mosquito, is found in various ecological settings, including urban areas, remote rural villages ...

Investigating the molecular basis of multiple insecticide resistance in a major malaria vector Anopheles funestus (sensu stricto) from Akaka-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Understanding the mechanisms used by Anopheles mosquitoes to survive insecticide exposure is key to manage existing insecticide resistance and develop more suitable insecticide-based malaria vector control interventions as well as other ...

Pesticide Contamination in the Hair of Children From Colonia San Juan, a Rural Community in Paraguay

Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 354-369, March 2026.
Hair analysis in children from a rural community in Paraguay reveals exposure to organophosphates, pyrethroids, neonicotinoids, fungicides, herbicides, and endocrine disruptors, highlighting the urgent need for stricter environmental protections and preventive health measures. ABSTRACT Chronic exposure to pesticides can cause carcinogenic, reproductive,

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...
