Organophosphorus pesticides used most commonly in Turkey include methamidophos, dichlorvos, O-methoate and diazinon. These toxic chemicals or their metabolites make a covalent bond with the active site serine of butyrylcholinesterase. Our goal was to identify the adducts that result from

A practical, inexpensive, and green chemical process is greatly needed for degrading pesticides in food and environmental water. In this work, the impact of O(2) plasma treatment on reduction of dichlorvos (DDVP) and omethoate in maize was determined by gas

The study aimed mainly to assess effects of omethoate on certain oxidative stress biomarkers in various tissues of frogs (Rana ridibunda). Biomarkers selected for stress monitoring were malondialdehyde (MDA) and antioxidant defense system (ADS) constituent such as reduced glutathione (GSH)
Many organophosphate pesticides (OPs) such as dimethoate are used to eradicate household pests, and those occurring in agriculture and forestry sectors. Combinations of two or more different insecticides have been manufactured to increase their effectiveness. A case of death is
The degree of insecticide resistance, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity kinetics, AChE gene expression and the cDNA sequence of AChE gene were investigated in resistant and relatively susceptible strains of the cotton aphids, Aphis gossypii (Glover). The resistant strain (ORR) exhibited 53.28-fold
