A single-chain variable fragment (ScFv) complementary DNA (cDNA) library against fenitrothion was constructed, and ScFvs specific for fenitrothion were selected by ribosome display from the library. After three rounds of ribosome display, the ScFv genes were cloned into Escherichia coli

Burkholderia species are ubiquitous in soil environments. Many Burkholderia species isolated from various environments have the potential to biodegrade man-made chemicals. Burkholderia sp. strain YI23 was isolated from a golf course soil and identified as a fenitrothion-degrading bacterium. In this

A mixture of pyrethroids plus organophosphates was assessed for their potential effects on lipid peroxidation, the antioxidant defense system and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in rat kidney in vitro. Various insecticide concentrations were incubated with kidney homogenate at 37°C for different

The thermal decomposition of Fenitrothion [phosphorothioic acid O,O-diethyl O-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenyl) ester] was investigated. Results obtained by different scale calorimetric techniques show that the thermal decomposition of Fenitrothion involves two main steps. Intermediate and final thermal degradation products formed during isothermal and
The aim of this study was to develop two behavioral tests (swimming velocity and avoidance behavior) specific for the common prawn, Palaemon serratus, and to investigate the effects of sublethal concentrations of fenitrothion on behavior and on several biomarkers. In
