Effect of chronic insecticide, phosalone, toxicity on haem synthesis and blood gas composition in the rat

1992

Reddy, S.J. | Reddy, B.V. | Ramamurthi, R.

The influence of multiple sublethal concentrations of phosalone on whole animal and kidney oxygen consumption, heam synthesis and blood gases of rat, were carried out over a 90 day dosed period. The results indicate the existence of hypoventilation and a hypoxic condition in the animals which lead to the disruption of neuromuscular transmission in respiratory muscles and increase of erythropoiesis and haemoglobin synthesis. The changes were most pronounced when animals were exposed for the 90 day dosed period.
