Abstract

The article discusses a study on the probable toxic effects of different doses of cypermethrin pesticides on male Sprague Dawley rats. It says that the study has observed clinical signs, gross, and histological variations. Results show varying outcomes in different control groups such as the observation of gross lesions in the intoxicated set, necrotic changes, and haemorrhages. It concludes that sublethal doses of cypermethrin may affect some vital organs and have toxic effects on mammals.
