Sumithion Induced Hepatic Injury in the Toads Bufo tibamicus

Abstract: The present work studied the effect of the organophosphate insecticide, sumithion on the liver of toads Bufo tibamicus. Feeding toads with a daily dose of sumithion (40 mg/kg body weight) for 10 days caused histological alterations in the liver. The normal structural organization of the hepatic acini was impaired, the hepatocytes showed cytoplasmic vacuolation and the blood vessels were congested. Moreover, elevations of transaminases (GOT, GPT) were recorded in the sera of treated animals. The obtained result… Show more

“…Cytoplasmic vacuolation and degeneration of hepatocytes have been noticed in cypermethrin http://www.ijt.ir; Volume 12, No 4, July-August 2018 challenged rats. This derives support from the studies of other workers reported similar findings from toxicants treated mammals [4,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], birds [20], amphibia [21] and fish [ 22,23]. Few investigators have not observed changes in liver after exposure to chlorpyrifos [24] and FYROL [25].…”
