Chronic exposure to pyrethroid-based allethrin and prallethrin mosquito repellents alters plasma biochemical profile

Ultrasound‐assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction coupled with capillary gas chromatography for simultaneous analysis of nine pyrethroids in domestic wastewaters

“…However, with the increase of its applications, the bioaccumulation and residual toxicity make pyrethroid insecticides a matter of public concern [3][4][5]. The residues in water represent a serious hazard to human health as well as cause significant harm to fish, shellfish and other aquatic animals [6][7][8].…”

Mosquito Larvicides from Cyanobacteria

“…Chronic toxicity studies performed by Narendra et al (2008) demonstrate that pyrethroids can accumulate in different tissues such as adipose, nerve, and even in blood. The study showed chronic exposure to pyrethroids can alter human blood profiles which can lead to cardiovascular risk and damage to hepatic tissue.…”

“…Various mosquito vectors have ranges that overlap with each other. The rotation of insecticides with different mechanisms of action is a valuable technique to help prevent resistance (Khambay and Jewess, 2005) and bioaccumulation in non-target organisms (Narendra et al, 2008).…”

Pyrethroids in indoor air during application of various mosquito repellents: Occurrence, dissipation and potential exposure risk

“…Based on the toxicological data from human and animal models, researchers have provided evidence that long-term exposure to pyrethroid-based MRs in the indoor environment can cause chronic neurotoxicity (Gupta et al, 1999;Narendra et al, 2008;Sinha et al, 2004Sinha et al, , 2006). In the current study, risk of pyrethroid-based MR applications was quantitatively calculated using exposure data, i.e.…”

“…Synthetic pyrethroids are widely used as active ingredients in mosquito repellents (MR) owing to their relatively low toxicity to mammals (Narendra et al, 2008;Pauluhn, 1999;Vesin et al, 2013). Recent studies, however, showed that pyrethroids might cause behavioral and developmental neurotoxicity, with special concern revolving around infants and children, due to their potential exposure during a sensitive neurodevelopmental stage (Shafer et al, 2005).…”
