Potentiation of organophosphorus compound-induced delayed neurotoxicity (OPIDN) in the central and peripheral nervous system of the adult hen: distribution of axonal lesions.

Only registered users can translate articles

Clinical manifestations of mild organophosphorus compound-induced delayed neurotoxicity (OPIDN) produced by diisopropylphosphorofluoridate (DFP) in adult hens are potentiated by posttreatment with phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF). The purpose of this study was to assess whether potentiation of

NTP Toxicology and Carcinogenesis Studies of Xylenes (Mixed) (60% m-Xylene, 14% p-Xylene, 9% o-Xylene, and 17% Ethylbenzene) (CAS No. 1330-20-7) in F344/N Rats and B6C3F1 Mice (Gavage Studies).

The delayed neurotoxic effects of tri-o-cresyl-phosphate (TOCP), O-methyl-O-(4-bromo-2,5-dichlorophenyl) phenylphosphonothioate (leptophos), and O-ethyl O-(4-nitrophenyl) phenylphosphonothioate (EPN) at 5, 5, and 1 mg/kg/day, respectively, on male sheep were studied during 6 months of daily oral

Direct administration of chlordecone into Japanese quail eggs has persistent effects on conditioned behavior of adults.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chlordecone (0.1 to 10 mg) or corn oil vehicle was injected into Japanese quail eggs on day 1 of incubation. Higher doses (0.5-10 mg per egg) produced tremor and ataxia at hatching and dose-related decreases in hatchability and survivability. Doses lower than 0.25 mg per egg had no effects. Gonad

Single-dose and 13-week repeated-dose neurotoxicity screening studies of chlorpyrifos insecticide.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a widely used organophosphate insecticide, was screened for neurotoxic effects in Fischer 344 rats using United States Environmental Protection Agency 1991 guidelines for single-dose and 13-wk repeated dose studies. The studies emphasized a functional observational battery (which

NTP toxicity studies of carisoprodol (CAS No. 78-44-4) administered by Gavage to F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

[carisoprodol structure: see text] Carisoprodol is a widely used skeletal muscle relaxant and analgesic and is available as a prescription drug. Comparative studies were conducted to determine the toxicity of carisoprodol administered in corn oil and in 0.5% methylcellulose by gavage. Carisoprodol

Differential sensitivity to the delayed neurotoxin tri-o-tolyl phosphate in several avian species.

Only registered users can translate articles

Adult white leghorn chickens, ring-necked pheasants, mallards, bobwhites, and Japanese quail were administered single oral doses of tri-o-tolyl phosphate (TOTP) at levels of 125, 250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg body weight. Corn oil served as the vehicle control. At 24 h after dosing, half the birds from

Delayed neurotoxicity in the wild mallard duckling caused by the organophosphorus insecticides cyanofenphos and leptophos.

Only registered users can translate articles

The susceptibility of wild mallard ducklings to the delayed neurotoxic effect of the neurotoxic organophosphorus insecticides cyanofenphos and leptophos was evaluated following a daily dosing regimen. Ducklings were treated daily with either cyanofenphos or with leptophos at different dose levels

Neuropharmacologic and neuropathologic effect of fenvalerate in mice and rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

B6C3F1 mice and Sprague-Dawley rats displayed the characteristic signs of pyrethroid intoxication following single oral doses ranging from 56 to 320 and 133 to 1000 mg/kg fenvalerate, respectively. The LD50s for mice and rats were 180 and 776 mg/kg, respectively, with corn oil as the vehicle. Signs
