  • Additive Interactions of Some Reduced-Risk Biocides and Two
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Additive interactions of some reduced‑risk biocides and two entomopathogenic nematodes suggest implications for integrated control of Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Rashad Rasool Khan 1,2*, Muhammad Arshad 1*, Asad Aslam 3 & Muhammad Arshad 4 Higher volumes of conventional and novel chemical insecticides are applied by farmers to control resistant strains of armyworm (Spodoperta litura) in Pakistan without knowing their risks to the environment and to public health. Ten reduced‑risk insecticides were tested for their compatibility with two entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs); Heterorhabditis indica and Steinernema carpocapsae rd against S. litura. The insecticide emamectin benzoate was highly toxic (LC50 = 2.97 mg/l) against 3 instar S. litura larvae when applied alone whereas, novaluron and methoxyfenozide were the least toxic (LC50 = 29.56 mg/l and 21.06 mg/l), respectively. All the insecticides proved harmless against the two EPNs even 96 h after treatment. Indoxacarb, fubendiamide and spinetoram produced the greatest mortalities (72–76%) of S. litura larvae after 72 h when applied in mixtures with H. indica. Lowest mortalities (44.00 ± 3.74% and 48.00 ± 2.89) were observed for mixtures of H. indica with methoxyfenozide and chlorfenapyr, respectively. The positive control treatments with both EPNs (S. carpocapsae and H. indica) produced > 50% mortality 96 h after treatment. For insecticide mixtures with S. carpocapsae, only indoxacarb produced 90% mortality of larvae, whereas, indoxacarb, fubendiamide, emamectin benzoate, and spinetoram produced 90–92% mortality of larvae when applied in mixtures with H. indica. Additive interactions (Chi‑square < 3.84) of EPN mixtures with reduced volumes of reduced‑risk insecticides suggest opportunities to develop more environmentally favorable pest management programs for S.

These patterns of signs and symptoms are essential for the successful recognition of chemical exposure. The toxidromes identified in this protocol are chemical exposure based while others such as the opioids are found within general medical protocol. These chemical toxidromes are identified clinically into five syndromes: Irritant Gas Toxidrome Asphyxiant Toxidrome Corrosive Toxidrome Hydrocarbon and Halogenated Hydrocarbons Toxidrome Cholinergic Toxidrome Each can present as a clinical manifestation of the chemical/poisoning involved with some cross-over between toxidromes.

  • Malathion General Fact Sheet
    MALATHION GENERAL FACT SHEET What is malathion Malathion is an insecticide in the chemical family known as organophosphates. Products containing malathion are used outdoors to control a wide variety of insects in agricultural settings and around people’s homes. Malathion has also been used in public health mosquito control and fruit fly eradication programs. Malathion may also be found in some special shampoos for treating lice. Malathion was first registered for use in the United States in 1956. What are some products that contain malathion Products containing malathion may be liquids, dusts, wettable powders, or emulsions. There are thousands of products contain- ing malathion registered for use in the United States. Always follow label instructions and take steps to avoid exposure. If any exposures occur, be sure to follow the First Aid instructions on the product label carefully. For additional treatment advice, contact the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222. If you wish to discuss a pesticide problem, please call 1-800-858-7378. How does malathion work Malathion kills insects by preventing their nervous system from working properly. When healthy nerves send signals to each other, a special chemical messenger travels from one nerve to another to continue the message. The nerve signal stops when an enzyme is released into the space between the nerves. Malathion binds to the enzyme and prevents the nerve signal from stopping. This causes the nerves to signal each other without stopping. The constant nerve signals make it so the insects can’t move or breathe normally and they die. People, pets and other animals can be affected the same way as insects if they are exposed to enough malathion.

    UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON D.C., 20460 OFFICE OF PREVENTION, PESTICIDES AND TOXIC SUBSTANCES MEMORANDUM DATE: July 31, 2006 SUBJECT: Finalization of Interim Reregistration Eligibility Decisions (IREDs) and Interim Tolerance Reassessment and Risk Management Decisions (TREDs) for the Organophosphate Pesticides, and Completion of the Tolerance Reassessment and Reregistration Eligibility Process for the Organophosphate Pesticides FROM: Debra Edwards, Director Special Review and Reregistration Division Office of Pesticide Programs TO: Jim Jones, Director Office of Pesticide Programs As you know, EPA has completed its assessment of the cumulative risks from the organophosphate (OP) class of pesticides as required by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. In addition, the individual OPs have also been subject to review through the individual- chemical review process. The Agency’s review of individual OPs has resulted in the issuance of Interim Reregistration Eligibility Decisions (IREDs) for 22 OPs, interim Tolerance Reassessment and Risk Management Decisions (TREDs) for 8 OPs, and a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) for one OP, malathion.1 These 31 OPs are listed in Appendix A. EPA has concluded, after completing its assessment of the cumulative risks associated with exposures to all of the OPs, that: (1) the pesticides covered by the IREDs that were pending the results of the OP cumulative assessment (listed in Attachment A) are indeed eligible for reregistration; and 1 Malathion is included in the OP cumulative assessment. However, the Agency has issued a RED for malathion, rather than an IRED, because the decision was signed on the same day as the completion of the OP cumulative assessment.

  • Method 8141B
    METHOD 8141B ORGANOPHOSPHORUS COMPOUNDS BY GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY 1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION 1.1 This method provides procedures for the gas chromatographic (GC) determination of organophosphorus (OP) compounds. The compounds listed in the table below can be determined by GC using capillary columns with a flame photometric detector (FPD) or a nitrogen-phosphorus detector (NPD). Triazine herbicides can also be determined with this method when the NPD is used. Although performance data are presented for each of the listed chemicals, it is unlikely that all of them could be determined in a single analysis. This limitation results because the chemical and chromatographic behavior of many of these chemicals can result in co-elution. The analyst must select columns, detectors, and calibration procedures for the specific analytes of interest. Any listed chemical is a potential method interference when it is not a target analyte.

  • Pesticide Residue Monitoring in Sediment and Surface Water Within the South Florida Water Management District Volume 2
    Technical Publication 91-01 Pesticide Residue Monitoring in Sediment and Surface Water Within the South Florida Water Management District Volume 2 by Richard J. Pfeuffer January 1991 This publication was produced at an annual cost of $243.75 or $.49 per copy to inform the public. 500 191 Produced on recycled paper. Water Quality Division Research and Evaluation Department South Florida Water Management District West Palm Beach, Florida A IBSTRAC'I' Pesticide monitoring data are collected under the requirements of several permits and agreements as an indicator of water quality. The monitoring provides data to determine shifts or adverse trends in the quality of water being delivered to Lake Okeechobee, Everglades National Park, and the Water Conservation Areas. In addition, pesticide residue data are collected throughout the South Florida Water Management District at locations selected to determine water quality conditions at the major water control points. Special investigations are performed on selected pesticides as required and follow-up sampling is conducted based on the pesticides detected. Data were collected from 13 stations in 1984. By 1988, the network was expanded to 29 stations. Currently, water and sediment samples are collected quarterly and analyzed for 67 pesticides, herbicides and degradation products. Out of a total of 197 surface water samples, 13 percent had detectable residues, while 25 percent of the 208 sediment samples had detectable residues. The compounds detected in the water samples included atrazine and zinc phosphide while a variety of compounds, including DDT, have been detected in the sediment. None of the residues detected are considered to have adverse health or environmental effects.
