Evaluation of neurotoxic effect of synthetic pyrethroids: comparative characteristics of neurotoxic action of cypermethrin and zeta-cypermethrin in pre- and postnatal period
Abstract:Synthetic pyrethroids (SPs) are insecticides used in everyday life, in rural and forestry farms. The wide use of SPs is due to their ability to rapidly biodegradate, relatively low toxicity to mammals and high insecticidal activity. Due to the similarity of neurochemical processes, these compounds may also exhibit their neurotoxic properties in non-target objects, in addition to the effects on pests. An overview ofscientific literature has shown that the best biological model for investigating the potential ne… Show more
