Tests were conducted to determine the effects of fungicides, captafol and chlorothalonil, on microbial and enzymatic activities in sandy loam. The results indicated that when captafol or chlorothalonil was added to the sandy loam, bacterial and fungicidal populations initially decreased

The mutagenic and genotoxic potential of four pesticides viz. captan, foltaf, phosphamidon and furadan was evaluated by the Ames mutagenicity assay and their DNA damaging ability on radiation repair defective E. coli K-12 strains respectively. The mutagenic spectrum revealed captan

The cytotoxicity of captafol, a phthalimide-derived fungicide, was evaluated in IB-RS-2 cells. Captafol at 0.12-1.0 microgram/ml blocks the cell multiplication. This effect is concentration-dependent, only partially reversible and the degree of inhibition increases with time. The synthesis of DNA and
Effects of quinoline and captafol, both of which are hemangiocarcinogenic agents, were investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Male SHR and Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY), the parent strain of SHR, were administered quinoline (0.2%) or captafol (0.15%) supplemented in the
The modifying effects of captafol and protective effects of L-cysteine on the development of glutathione S-transferase placental form-positive (GST-P +) foci of the liver and expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the kidney were investigated in a medium-term
