Toxicology Letters, 2016 Fipronil is a broad spectrum insecticide from the phenyl pyrazole family, which targets GABA receptor. Limited information is available about the metabolite fipronil sulfone cytotoxic actions. This study examined in vitro neurotoxicity of fipronil and fipronil sulfone and evaluated Trolox (vitamin E analog) (0.3, 1μM), N-acetyl-cysteine (0.5, 1mM ...

Toxicology Letters, 2019 Fipronil is a chiral insecticide employed worldwide in crops, control of public hygiene and control of veterinary pests. Humans can be exposed to fipronil through occupational, food, and environmental contamination. Therefore, the risk assessment of fipronil in humans is important to protect human health. Fipronil sulfone is the major metabolite formed

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

SeparationsProtein baits containing fipronil as a biocide have shown their effectivity as a control method for Vespa velutina nigrithorax (Lepeletier, 1836) in apiaries. This biocide is not selective for Vespa velutina, so it is important to use the minimum dose to

Environmental Risks and Toxicity of Fipronil and Imidacloprid Used in Pets Ectoparasiticides [PDF]
AnimalsFipronil (FIP) and imidacloprid (IMID) are two of the most commonly used ectoparasiticides to control parasites in pets. Compared with those of farm animals, their environmental risks have generally been considered low because of their limited use ...
