  3. Pesticide poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesticide_poisoning

    Besides acute symptoms including cholinergic crisis, certain organophosphates have long been known to cause a delayed-onset toxicity to nerve cells, which is often irreversible. Several studies have shown persistent deficits in cognitive function in workers chronically exposed to pesticides.

  4. Terbufos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terbufos

    Symptoms of a terbufos induced ACC result in muscarinic (diaphoresis, vomiting, miosis, salivation), nicotinic (pallor and muscle weakness with respiratory failure) and CNS poisoning (headache, dizziness, altered level of consciousness) symptoms. [24] The toxic effects can be managed by early recognition of terbufos poisoning, rapid ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_solvent-induced...

    Chronic solvent-induced encephalopathy (CSE) is a condition induced by long-term exposure to organic solvents, often—but not always—in the workplace, that lead to a wide variety of persisting sensorimotor polyneuropathies and neurobehavioral deficits even after solvent exposure has been removed.

  6. Sulfotep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfotep

    Sulfotep causes an organophosphate poisoning. This means that it had an effect on the activity of cholinesterase. There are differences for the indications of a sulfotep poisoning between inhalation, ingestion, intake by the skin and intake by the eyes.

  7. Chlorethoxyfos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorethoxyfos

    Chlorethoxyfos is designed to be less toxic for humans than for insects, but it does present a toxic hazard to some extent. It is unstable in aquatic environments and accidental extraction of chlorethoxyfos into aquatic environments may result in exertion of toxic effects on aquatic organisms before degradation is complete. [2] [7]

  8. Aldicarb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldicarb

    Most commonly, aldicarb causes toxic symptoms when it is ingested through food that has been tainted with the insecticide. [5] Once in the body, aldicarb is broken down into aldicarb sulfone and aldicarb sulfoxide. Hydrolysis of aldicarb leads to aldicarb oximes and aldicarb nitriles to reverse the toxicity. [10]

  9. Leptophos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptophos

    A positive score on three or more symptoms was used as a cut off point for further analysis. Eye: Lacrimation and irritation of the eyes. If both symptoms were observed the patient was considered to have eye problems due to the poisoning. CNS: Trembling hands difficulty in seeing, irritability, forgetfulness, restlessness and difficulties ...
