    • Biomonitoring of the hematological, biochemical and genotoxic effects of the mixture cypermethrin plus chlorpyrifos applications in bovines 

      Ferré, Daniela Marisol; Jotallan, Paola; Lentini, Valeria; Ludueña, Héctor Ricardo; Romano, Raquel; Gorla, Nora Bibiana María (Science of the Total Environment Editorial, 2020-03-19)
      External antiparasitic agents applied in bovine production represent a risk to consumers of meat products, espe- cially if the conditions of their use are not strictly respected. The post-mortem control of residues in meat is an activity that must be updated and reinforced by the biomonitoring of live animals and the use of analytical tools to help identifying signs of early warning risks. The objective of the present study was to carry out a pre- slaughter biomonitoring approach in Aberdeen Angus cattle and crosses (n = 12) with the application of a com- mercial formulation of cypermethrin ...
    • Erythrocyte micronucleus cytome assay of 17 wild bird species from the central Monte desert, Argentina. 

      Quero, Arnoldo Ängel Martín; Ferré, Daniela Marisol; Zarco, Agustín; Cuervo, Pablo Fernando; Gorla, Nora Bibiana María (Editorial Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2016-09-29)
      Birds have the potential to be considered valuable bioindicators of the quality of ecosystems and the environmental impact of pollutants. The aims of this study were to determine the micronuclei frequency and other nuclear abnormalities in erythrocytes by analyzing a wild bird community from central Monte desert (Argentina) and to clarify if there were any differences among certain species. Frequencies of nuclear abnormalities were determined in 73 wild birds belonging to 17 species and two orders (Passeriformes and Columbiformes). A high proportion of individuals, 90.4 and 80.9 %, had erythrocytes ...
    • Evaluation of the genotoxic potential of cypermethrin, chlorpyrifos and their subsequent mixture, on cultured bovine lymphocytes 

      Ferré, Daniela Marisol; Ludueña, Héctor Ricardo; Romano, Raquel; Gorla, Nora Bibiana María (Comité editorial Chemosphere Journal, 2019-11-09)
      Cypermethrin (CYP) and chlorpyrifos (CPF) are insecticides/parasiticides used in the production of fruits, vegetables and beef cattle. These substances or their metabolites are frequently reported as residues in food, whose consumption in a diet implies a genotoxic risk. The potential for chronic toxicity of CYP and CPF is unclear, and only a few genotoxicological evaluations based on their mixture have been performed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genotoxic potential of CYP, CPF and CYP þ CPF in five concentrations, from 5.9 to 175 mg/mL, on bovine lymphocytes. By means of the ...
    • Potential risks of dietary exposure to chlorpyrifos and cypermethrin from their use in fruit/vegetable crops and beef cattle productions. 

      Ferré, Daniela Marisol; Quero, Arnoldo Ángel Martín; Hernández, Antonio Francisco; Hynes, Valentina; Tornello, Marcelo Javier; Lúders, Carlos; Gorla, Nora Bibiana María (Comité editorial Environ Monitoring and Assessment, 2018-04-18)
      The active ingredients (a.i.) used as pesticides vary across regions. Diet represents the main source of chronic exposure to these chemicals. The aim of this study was to look at the pesticides applied in fruit, vegetable, and beef cattle productions in Mendoza (Argentina), to identify those that were simultaneously used by the three production systems. Local individuals (n = 160), involved in these productions, were interviewed. Glyphosate was the a.i. most often used by fruit-vegetable producers, and ivermectin by beef cattle producers. Chlorpyrifos (CPF) and cypermethrin (CYP) were the only ...
    • Reference values for acetyl and butyrylcholinesterases in cattle under actual management conditions, hepatic and renal function by application of chlorpyrifos 

      Ferré, Daniela Marisol; Lentini, Valeria Roxana; Romano, Raquel; Ludueña, Héctor Ricardo; Jotallán, Paola Jimena; Gorla, Nora Bibiana María (Comité editorial Journal of Environmental Science and Health, 2018-01-02)
      Chlorpyrifos is an anticholinesterase organophosphate insecticide widely used in Argentina in the production of food derived from animal, fruit and horticultural origin and is reported as a residue within these products. Local reference values for acetyl and butyrylcholinesterase were determined in Aberdeen Angus bovine and cross bred cattle (n D 25), a requirement to be able to evaluate toxicity of commercial organophosphate and carbamate formulations. The activity of cholinesterase enzymes presented an overall mean of 2,183.00 § 485.6 IU L¡1 for erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase and 203.1 § ...
