Toxics, 2022 Neonicotinoid insecticides affect the physiology or behavior of insects, posing risks to non-target organisms. In this study, the effects of sublethal doses of two neonicotinoid insecticides, acetamiprid and dinotefuran, against Chrysopa pallens (Rambur)

Enzymes and Inhibitors in Neonicotinoid Insecticide Metabolism [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2009 Neonicotinoid insecticide metabolism involves considerable substrate specificity and regioselectivity of the relevant CYP450, aldehyde oxidase, and phase II enzymes. Human CYP450 recombinant enzymes carry out the following conversions: CYP3A4, 2C19, and 2B6 for thiamethoxam (TMX) to clothianidin (CLO); 3A4, 2C19, and 2A6 for CLO to desmethyl-CLO; 2C19 ...

No evidence for negative impacts of acute sulfoxaflor exposure on bee olfactory conditioning or working memory [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Systemic insecticides such as neonicotinoids and sulfoximines can be present in the nectar and pollen of treated crops, through which foraging bees can become acutely exposed.

Environmental Risks and Challenges Associated with Neonicotinoid Insecticides [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2018 Neonicotinoid use has increased rapidly in recent years, with a global shift toward insecticide applications as seed coatings rather than aerial spraying. While the use of seed coatings can lessen the amount of overspray and drift, the near universal and prophylactic use of neonicotinoid seed coatings on major agricultural crops has led to widespread ...

Is there a relationship between insect metabolic rate and mortality of mealworms Tenebrio molitor L. after insecticide exposure? [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2016 Pesticides are known to affect insects metabolic rate and CO2 release patterns. In the presented paper metabolic rate and mortality of mealworms Tenebrio molitor L.

A critical review of neonicotinoid insecticides for developmental neurotoxicity [PDF]
Critical Reviews in Toxicology, 2015 A comprehensive review of published and previously unpublished studies was performed to evaluate the neonicotinoid insecticides for evidence of developmental neurotoxicity (DNT). These insecticides have favorable safety profiles, due to their preferential affinity for nicotinic receptor (nAChR) subtypes in insects, poor penetration of the mammalian ...

Potential effects of neonicotinoid insecticides on northern bobwhites
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018 Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations have been declining in Texas, USA, for nearly 3 decades. Reasons for the decline are unclear; however, a variety of factors have been considered, including pesticides and other environmental ...

The global status of insect resistance to neonicotinoid insecticides [PDF]
Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 2015 The first neonicotinoid insecticide, imidacloprid, was launched in 1991. Today this class of insecticides comprises at least seven major compounds with a market share of more than 25% of total global insecticide sales. Neonicotinoid insecticides are highly selective agonists of insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and provide farmers with ...
