Effects of occupational exposure in pesticide plant on workers' serum and erythrocyte cholinesterase activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Objectives: The determination of cholinesterase activity has been commonly applied in the biomonitoring of exposure to organophosphates and carbamates and in the diagnosis of poisoning with anticholinesterase compounds.

Flaccid paraplegia of organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy leading to early spastic paraplegia. Case report

open access: yesAktualności Neurologiczne, 2015
Organophosphate insecticides have been widely used for pest control. They have been readily used as a suicidal agent in developing countries. This paper reports the case of a middle aged male patient with acute organophosphate compound poisoning who in

Monitoring resistance of Cydia pomonella (L.) Spanish field populations to new chemical insecticides and the mechanisms involved [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: A widespread resistance of Cydia pomonella to organophosphates was demonstrated in populations from the Spanish Ebro Valley area that showed high levels of enzymatic detoxification.

Intensive care management of organophosphate insecticide poisoning [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Care, 2001
Organophosphate (OP) insecticides inhibit both cholinesterase and pseudo-cholinesterase activities. The inhibition of acetylcholinesterase causes accumulation of acetylcholine at synapses, and overstimulation of neurotransmission occurs as a result of this accumulation. The mortality rate of OP poisoning is high.

Gulf War Syndrome: A role for organophosphate induced plasticity of locus coeruleus neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Gulf War syndrome is a chronic multi-symptom illness that has affected about a quarter of the deployed veterans of the 1991 Gulf War. Exposure to prolonged low-level organophosphate insecticides and other toxic chemicals is now thought to be responsible.

Armored scale insecticide resistance challenges San Joaquin Valley citrus growers

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 2001
Organophosphate and carbamate insecticides have been used to treat citrus pest problems for more than 40 years. From 1990 to 1998, we documented California red scale and yellow scale resistance to these insecticides.
