Deltamethrin is a potent broad-spectrum insecticide widely used in agriculture, public health, and domestic applications to control mosquitoes and other insects, although some insect populations have developed resistance to it. AI generated definition based on: Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Third Edition),...
Deltamethrin is a kind of synthetic pyrethroids insecticide used worldwide in agriculture for home pest control and protection of foodstuff and disease vector control. Deltamethrin belongs to the type II pyrethroids, which is hydrophobic in nature. It kills the insects through producing severe delay in...
Pyrethroids (deltamethrin) are increasingly being used in modern agriculture. In addition, cadmium (Cd) has considerable use in a wide spectrum of industrial fields. Consequently, combined pollution with deltamethrin (DM) and Cd is a common phenomenon in soil. In this study, the toxic effects of...
Deltamethrin, a synthetic dibromo-pyrethroid insecticide, is well known to possess high activity against a broad spectrum of insects, to lack persistence in the environment and to have low acute toxicity in mammals (Villarini et al., 1998). Therefore, it is extensively used in agriculture, forest...
However, with the massive use of pyrethroids in both public health and agriculture sectors, there were reports of rapid development of pyrethroid resistance among malaria vectors which is a serious concern undermining the effectiveness of both the tools (LLIN and IRS) [16–19]. In this scenario...
in Brazil. Thus, insecticide treatments are likely to exceed the need and a new approach is to find the thresholds associated with the use of selective products, probably leading to a reduction in the use of pesticides. Particularly parasitoids could be a target to sublethal doses of ...

Silymarin, Histology, INTRODUCTION Pyrethroid insecticides are used extensively in agriculture, forestry, and public health (Casida and Quistad, 1998). Pyrethroids are synthetic analogs of the natural pyrethrins, the insecticidal components of extracts from the pyrethrum flower (Chrysanthemum cinerariae...
However, with the extensive and frequent use of pyrethroid pesticides in agriculture, concerns about pyrethroid pollution of the environment have steadily increased. Microbial degradation could be developed as an eco-friendly and proficient tool to bioremediate pyrethroid-contaminated sites due to its adva...
Owing to the extensive use of pyrethroids in agriculture and domestic activities, there are more chances of exposure to these chemicals, leading to neurodegenerative diseases (Baltazar et al., 2014). Such exposures have been observed more frequently in developing countries (Rother, 2014). Download:...
