Susceptibility to the Neonicotinoid Pesticide Imidacloprid Is Linked to Life History Regulation in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.). [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT The Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) is a globally important pollinator. Its health in natural and managed populations is compromised by numerous factors, including pesticides. Neonicotinoid pesticides are widely used even though they can cause a variety of detrimental effects.

Environment International, 2020 While neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) have been widely used worldwide, limited studies have measured specific metabolites of imidacloprid (IMI, the most commonly used NNI) in human urine. To better understand human exposure to NNIs, 10 parent compounds, and 6 of their metabolites were analyzed in 408 urine samples collected from 129 healthy adults in

Imidacloprid oxidation by photo-Fenton reaction
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2008 This paper presents experimental results on the imidacloprid removal from wastewater using homogeneous photo-Fenton reactions illuminated with black light lamps. Multivariate experimental design was used to identify the effect of initial Fe(II) and H(2)O(2) concentrations on process performance.

Neonicotinoid and s-triazine pesticide transport dynamics in a small karst agricultural watershed. [PDF]
J Environ QualAbstract The potential ecological and human health risks posed by agricultural pesticides necessitate a comprehensive understanding of pesticide transport dynamics to guide effective management. Riparian buffers are often implemented to mitigate nutrients and sediment transported in surface runoff.

Metabolism of imidacloprid in Apis mellifera [PDF]
Pest Management Science, 2003 AbstractBiotransformation of imidacloprid and the appearance of olefin and 5‐hydroxyimidacloprid metabolites in the honeybee were studied by HPLC‐MS/MS analysis. Honeybees were treated orally with imidacloprid at 20 and 50 µg kg−1 bee. Imidacloprid was metabolised relatively quickly and thoroughly.

Myasthenia-Like Presentation of Imidacloprid Toxicity
Cureus, 2023 Imidacloprid is a neonicotinoid insecticide highly specific to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in insects and other invertebrates. Nicotinic receptors in mammalian species have a low affinity to neonicotinoids. However, cross-reactivity with mammalian nicotinic receptors is a major concern especially due to the propensity of this commonly used agent ...

A Rare Presentation of Imidacloprid Poisoning
Cureus, 2023 Acute poisoning with pesticides and insecticides can sometimes result in unexpected clinical manifestations. Awareness regarding all possible signs and symptoms of poisoning with these compounds can help in timely diagnosis and treatment. Deliberate ingestion of imidacloprid, a neonicotinoid insecticide, despite being minimally lethal to humans, proved

Acute effects of the imidacloprid metabolite desnitro-imidacloprid on human nACh receptors relevant for neuronal signaling [PDF]
Archives of Toxicology, 2021 AbstractSeveral neonicotinoids have recently been shown to activate the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) on human neurons. Moreover, imidacloprid (IMI) and other members of this pesticide family form a set of diverse metabolites within crops. Among these, desnitro-imidacloprid (DN-IMI) is of special toxicological interest, as there is evidence (
