We investigated the toxic effects of carbendazim and n-butyl isocyanate (BIC), metabolites of the fungicide benomyl, on development in the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis. To test the toxic effects, frog embryo teratogenesis assays using Xenopus were performed. Embryos were

The objectives of this study were to use pulmonary function tests, blood gas measurements and bronchoalveolar lung lavage (BAL) to characterize lesions in the respiratory tract of young adult male Wistar rats as a result of a 5-day exposure (6

The effects of the fungicide benomyl and its breakdown products, carbendazim and butyl isocyanate, were examined on canine tracheal epithelial tissue in primary culture. Changes in ciliary frequencies were monitored with an optical spectrum analysis system. Serial dilutions of the
The acetylcholinesterase inhibition by enantiomers of exo- and endo-2-norbornyl-N-n-butylcarbamates shows high stereoselelectivity. For the acetylcholinesterase inhibitions by (R)-(+)- and (S)-(-)-exo-2-norbornyl-N-n-butylcarbamates, the R-enantiomer is more potent than the S-enantiomer. But, for the acetylcholinesterase inhibitions by (R)-(+)- and (S)-(-)-endo-2-norbornyl-N-n-butylcarbamates, the S-enantiomer is
