Modeling organochlorine compounds and the σ-hole effect using a polarizable multipole force field. [PDF]

J Phys Chem B, 2014
The charge distribution of halogen atoms on organochlorine compounds can be highly anisotropic and even display a so-called σ-hole, which leads to strong halogen bonds with electron donors.

Diflubenzuron Caused Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Ca2+ Homeostasis Disruption, and Intrinsic Apoptosis in Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diflubenzuron is used as an insect growth inhibitor, and its potential risk to human health was raised owing to the possibility of environmental residues and human exposure. This study aimed to investigate the toxic mechanism of diflubenzuron on trophoblastic cells such as HTR8/SVneo and JEG‐3 cells. We investigated mitochondrial function, Ca2+

Organochlorine pesticides in the Tisza River (Serbia): Distribution and risk assessment [PDF]

Zbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke, 2019
Paper provided the systematic data on the distribution and risk assess­ment status of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in sediment of the Tisza River (Serbia). The α-HCH, endrin ketone and methoxychlor are the most commonly found OCPs compounds.

Presence of Nationally Banned Carbamates and Organophosphate Pesticides in Wild Carnivores, Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As top predators, terrestrial carnivores face great risk of pesticide exposure and serve as sentinels of environmental contamination. Additionally, terrestrial carnivores are frequently threatened by intentional or secondary poisoning with highly toxic compounds, such as carbamates and organophosphates.

Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Dependent Articulation in the Global Pesticide Complex: Argentina's Agrochemical Industry After the Generics Market Revolution

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the late 1990s, the pesticide industry has undergone a ‘generics revolution’ as the centre of production, and trade has shifted to the global South. China and India have become major producers, capturing Latin American markets from Northern multinationals. As a major pesticide user and a key node in global supply chains, Argentina offers

Indoor residual spraying of distinct insecticide formulations in a household‐scale micro‐mosaic format: Feasibility and effectiveness for malaria vector control in rural Zambia

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Densities of all Anopheles species were approximately comparable across all IRS regimes. No differences observed between treatment regimes regarding species composition of the Anopheles funestus group or An. gambiae complex. This operational pilot demonstrates the practical feasibility of IRS micro‐mosaics, despite the inherent increase in deployment ...
