Cytotoxicity of some pesticides is a disadvantage for the Salmonella/microsome assay with regard to the equivalence assessment of pesticide technical grade active ingredients to the original products and detection of low-level impurities. The technical grade active ingredients (TGAIs) of pesticides from certain chemical classes were found to be tox...

Prometryn is a methylthio-s-triazine herbicide used to control the growth of annual broadleaf and grass weeds in many cultivated plants. Significant traces of prometryn are documented in the environment, mainly in waters, soil, and plants used for human and domestic consumption. Previous studies have shown that triazine herbicides have carcinogenic...

BACKGROUND: Herbicides are the most used class of pesticides worldwide, and insect repellents are widely used globally. Yet, there is a dearth of studies characterizing the associations between these chemical groups and human neurobehavior. Experimental studies suggest that glyphosate and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) herbicides can affect...

Knowledge surrounding the association between exposure to pesticides and hypothyroidism is inconsistent and controversial. The aim of present study was, therefore, to review scientific evidence systematically and conduct a meta-analysis into the contribution of exposure to pesticides to hypothyroidism. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Sch...

[ES] Los herbicidas fenoxiácidos se han utilizado ampliamente en la agricultura desde la década de los 50 para controlar el crecimiento de malas hierbas en una amplia gama de cultivos, como cereales, arroz y cítricos. Debido a su alta solubilidad en agua y su baja absorción en el suelo, en regiones con actividades agrícolas intensivas estos herbici...

Abstract: The genetic improvement of soybean cultivars over the years has focused on increasing the yield potential and tolerance to some abiotic and biotic factors. However, during the transfer of genes of interest, some genes responsible for a lower tolerance to herbicides can be integrated into the genome of the new cultivar. Thus, the objective...

Resumo: A canola, durante o ciclo de cultivo, pode ser infestada e danificada por diversas pragas (insetos, fungos e plantas daninhas). Visando reduzir a incidência e os danos provocados por esses agentes bióticos, os agricultores realizam aplicações de inseticidas, fungicidas e herbicidas nas lavouras. O uso destes produtos químicos reduz a incidê...

Herbicides in the widely used chloroacetanilide class harbor a potent electrophilic moiety, which can damage proteins through nucleophilic substitution. In general, damaged proteins are subject to misfolding. Accumulation of misfolded proteins compromises cellular integrity by disrupting cellular proteostasis networks, which can further destabilize...

BackgroundConsumption of an organic diet reduces exposure to a range of agricultural pesticides. Only three studies have examined the effect of an organic diet intervention on exposure to the herbicide glyphosate, the most heavily used agricultural chemical in the world. Despite its widespread use, the primary sources of glyphosate exposure in huma...
