Advanced Research on cis-Neonicotinoids

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2011
cis-Neonicotinoids are a type of neonicotinoid, in which the nitro or the cyano group are in cis-configuration relative to heteroaromatic moiety, which show excellent activities against a range of insect species.

Neonicotinoids [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2018
Neonicotinoids are a class of pesticides widely used in agriculture. In this Quick Guide, Bass and Field explain their mechanism of action and discuss the evidence supporting a potential role in pollinator declines.

Dietary exposure to neonicotinoid insecticides and health risks in the Chinese general population through two consecutive total diet studies

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2020
Neonicotinoid insecticides are ubiquitous in food and the environment due to their wide use. Growing evidence suggests the adverse effects of neonicotinoids in many species, including mammals.

Meta-analysis reveals that seed-applied neonicotinoids and pyrethroids have similar negative effects on abundance of arthropod natural enemies [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Background Seed-applied neonicotinoids are widely used in agriculture, yet their effects on non-target species remain incompletely understood. One important group of non-target species is arthropod natural enemies (predators and parasitoids), which ...

Neonicotinoids impact bumblebee colony fitness in the field; a reanalysis of the UK’s Food & Environment Research Agency 2012 experiment [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
The causes of bee declines remain hotly debated, particularly the contribution of neonicotinoid insecticides. In 2013 the UK’s Food & Environment Research Agency made public a study of the impacts of exposure of bumblebee colonies to neonicotinoids.

Behavioral effects of adult male mice induced by low-level acetamiprid, imidacloprid, and nicotine exposure in early-life

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionAcetamiprid (ACE) and imidacloprid (IMI), the neonicotinoid chemicals, are widely used as pesticides because of their rapid insecticidal activity.

Call to restrict neonicotinoids [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2018
Neonicotinoids are the most widely used insecticides in the world ([ 1 ][1]). They are applied to a broad range of food, energy, and ornamental crops, and used in domestic pest control ([ 2 ][2]).

Temperature-dependent effects of neonicotinoids on the embryonic development of zebrafish (Danio rerio)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The agricultural use of neonicotinoids is increasing worldwide and poses a threat to non-target organisms. The existing toxicity data of neonicotinoids that is mainly focused on widely used neonicotinoids ignores the influence of environmental factors ...

Contact exposure to neonicotinoid insecticides temporarily suppresses the locomotor activity of Pardosa lugubris agrobiont wolf spiders

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Exposure to numerous chemicals disrupts the spiders' locomotion. Spiders, particularly epigeic spiders, are dependent on their locomotory activities to search for prey, hide from their enemies, and perform sexual reproduction and subsequent parental care.
