Effects of fipronil bait pellets on two cricetid species: Potential implications for plague mitigation and wildlife conservation [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
We evaluated the effects of fipronil bait pellets on two cricetids that commonly occupy colonies of black-tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys ludovicianus; BTPDs): western deer mice (Peromyscus sonoriensis) and northern grasshopper mice (Onychomys leucogaster).

Direct adverse effects of fipronil sulfone, diisopentyl phthalate and disperse red 60 on zebrafish hepatocytes [PDF]

Toxicology Reports
The major concerns about emerging pollutants fipronil sulfone, disperse red 60 (DR60), and diisopentyl phthalate (DiPP) include their environmental persistence, difficulty in its removal from water sources, and bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms.

Serum Concentrations of Fipronil and Metabolites in Japanese Pregnant Women: Relationship with Thyroid Hormone Levels [PDF]

Toxics
Fipronil, a widely used phenylpyrazole insecticide, is known to disrupt circulating thyroid hormone (TH) levels in rodents. Concentrations of fipronil and its metabolites (fipronil sulfone and fipronil sulfide) in serum samples collected in 2009–2011 ...

Assessing potential collateral effects on amphibians from insecticide applications for flea control and plague mitigation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Ideal disease mitigation measures for wildlife are safe and benign for target species, non-target organisms, the environment, and humans. Identifying collateral (i.e., unintended) effects is a key consideration in implementing such actions.

Dissipation dynamics of fipronil in tropical paddy (Oryza sativa L.) soil: unravelling its persistence and metabolism under varying moisture regime [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Fipronil, a phenylpyrazole insecticide, is widely used for the management of rice pests; however, its environmental fate and potential risks in tropical paddy ecosystems to food safety under varying soil conditions remain insufficiently ...

High-resolution mass spectrometry for extended PFAS surveillance in food: combining suspect and non-targeted approaches [PDF]

Food Chemistry: X
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent, potentially harmful synthetic chemicals. While they can accumulate in foodstuffs, current monitoring often targets only a few compounds, likely underestimating dietary exposure. In this study, 58

Fipronil prevents transmission of Lyme disease spirochetes [PDF]

Parasitology
Lyme disease, a tick-borne illness caused by Borrelia spirochetes, poses a significant threat to public health. While acaricides effectively control ticks on pets and livestock, their impact on pathogen transmission is often unclear.
