An observational study on neurobehavioural effects of acute oxydemeton-methyl (insecticide and acaricide) exposure in rats.

Oxydemeton-methyl, an organophosphate insecticide and acaricide produced decrease in the exploratory behaviour and prolongation of barbitone sodium-induced hypnosis after intermittent aerosol spray inhalational exposure for 1 h in rats compared to the saline control group. Further, CD50 +/- S.E.M. value for pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) and CI50 +/- S.E.M. value for electroshock (i.e. the dose of PTZ and intensity of electroshock producing positive seizure response in 50% of rats) were significantly decreased by acute exposure to oxydemeton-methyl compared to that of saline control group. The study has established the central nervous system depressant effect and proconvulsant potential of oxydemeton-methyl which is widely used by the agricultural workers in the form of field spray.[1]
