Abstract:With considerable concerns about the associations between metabolic disorders and agricultural biocides, there are scattered data suggesting that the triazole fungicide prothioconazole (PTC) at lower doses than the no observed adverse effect level of 5000 μg/kg/d possibly has the potential to disrupt glycolipid metabolism in mammals. Here, we investigated the effects of 50, 500, and 5000 μg/kg/ d of PTC on glycolipid metabolism in mice following 8 weeks of administration via drinking water, with specific atten… Show more
