Twelve pesticides (nine herbicides: 2,4-D; acetochlor, atrazine, dicamba, glyphosate, mesotrione, metolachlor, nicosulfuron, trifluralin; three insecticides:
dimethoate, disulfoton, and malathion) contributed to these 27 pairs.
Dimethoate was the most toxic of the insecticides tested with an LC50 of 0.
Conclusion: In general, more than one disease is highly probable in three of each twenty-five rats a cause of
Dimethoate consumption, being probably affected their locomotion system as the more dangerous disease found in the studies collected.
Insecticides phosmet, thiamethoxam, malathion and fenthion significantly differed from control in the number of surviving insects, showing higher mortality at the first evaluation (24h), while
dimethoate, deltamethrin and azadirachtin showed low mortality of weevils in all evaluations, and did not significantly differed from control (water only) (Figure 2).
phosphamidon, quinalphos, malathion,
dimethoate and diazinon obtain similar results against mustard aphid.
The default values for the production process of glyphosate, copper and mineral oil were taken directly from the software databases, whereas the production process of
dimethoate was associated with the default value of organophosphorus compounds production.
Developmental toxicity of orally administered technical
dimethoate in rats.
Previously, many authors documented the toxicity of
dimethoate on broilers, mammals, aquatic and soil inhabiting organisms (Paithane et al.
An elevation in lipidperoxidation caused by other pesticides in different experiments has also been reported; Methoxychlor, [16] endosulfan, [17] and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorobenzo-P-dioxin(TCDD), [18] malathion, and
dimethoate.
