Prerna Vohra, Kuldeep Singh Khera

Abstract :

Imidacloprid was given orally to female albino rats for 60 days. Rats were divided into three groups. Group 1 served as Control and was given corn oil through oral intubation. Group 2 served as Treated 1 given 1/45th LD50 of imidacloprid. Group 3 served as Treated 2 and given 1/22th LD50 of imidacloprid for 60 days to assess the acetylcholine esterase activity (AChE) in ain andhistopathological changes in ain and kidney of female albino rats.Imidaclopridat 1/22th LD50 of imidacloprid exposure leads to marked inhibitionin AChE activity in ain and histopathological changes in ain and kidney of imidacloprid (1/22th LD50) treated rats.
