Insecticides

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2004
Organophosphate (OP) insecticide toxicity is the leading cause of major morbidity and death in the insecticides class. The clinical syndrome of OP toxicity varies widely, ranging from the classic cholinergic syndrome to flaccid paralysis and intractable seizures.

Rethinking Biorational Insecticides for the Pest Management: Unintended Effects and Consequences.

Pest Management Science, 2020
Biorational insecticides are composed of natural products, including animals, plants, microbes, and minerals, or are their derivates. The use of biorational products for the management of insect pests has grown intensively in recent years, which has ...

Insecticide Solvents: Interference with Insecticidal Action

Science, 1977
Several commercial solvent mixtures commonly used as insecticide carriers in spray formulations increase by more than threefold the microsomal N -demethylation of p -chloro N -methylaniline in midgut preparations of southern armyworm (Spodoptera eridania) larvae ...

Field-Evolved Resistance of the Fall Armyworm (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to Synthetic Insecticides in Puerto Rico and Mexico

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2018
The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), is one of the main pests of corn in many areas of the American continent. The reliance on pesticides to control fall armyworm has led to the development of insecticide resistance in many regions. We

Insecticides and ovarian functions

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, 2020
Insecticides, a heterogeneous group of chemicals, are widely used in agriculture and household practices to avoid insect‐inflicted damage. Extensive use of insecticides has contributed substantially to agricultural production and the prevention of deadly

Selection and characterization of the inheritance of resistance of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) to chlorantraniliprole and cross-resistance to other diamide insecticides.

Pest Management Science, 2019
BACKGROUND Understanding the genetic basis of insect resistance to insecticides can help to implement insecticide resistance management (IRM) strategies. In this study, we selected a strain of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E.

Insecticides and Insecticide Resistance

2019
Vector control has significantly reduced malaria morbidity in many regions of the world where the disease was endemic and is now moving toward malaria elimination. Among the tools available for vector control, the use of long-lasting insecticidal bed nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) has proved most effective.

Entomopathogens as Insecticides

Environmental Letters, 1975
Entomopathogens, diseases of insects, are suggested as a possible new generation of safe, selective insecticides. Over a thousand pathogens have been isolated from insects. Many of these, associated with major insect pests, are potential candidates for development into microbial insecticides.

The insecticide “Kelevan”

1976
The insecticide Kelevan is the ethyl ester of a polychlorinated alicyclic carboxylic acid. Its empirical formula is C17H12O4Cl10). In the pesticide literature it is occasionally discussed together with the organochlorine compounds. Melnikow (1974), in his book “Chemistry and Technology of Pesticides” mentions it in the chapter on polychlorocyclodienes.
