Given its wide distribution across South Asia, the venom characteristics and lethality can vary by region with different toxicological properties. Hence, we investigated the characteristics of Bangladeshi Russell's viper venom (BRVV) through SDS-PAGE profiling, reverse-phase HPLC analysis, along with assessments of phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> (PLA<sub>2</sub>), edema-inducing, hemolytic, hemorrhagic, and coagulant activities, histopathology, and blood biochemistry, following established protocols. We also studied the neutralization efficacy of polyvalent antivenom from VINS Bio Products Ltd., India (VPAV) against BRVV. RP-HPLC analysis of BRVV displayed 15 peaks, and SDS-PAGE showed high-intensity protein bands within the 15-70 kDa range. The median lethal dose (LD<sub>50</sub>) for mice was found to be 0.33 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.), and venom exposure resulted in neurotoxic symptoms such as limb paralysis, respiratory difficulties, and sluggishness. BRVV exhibited strong PLA<sub>2</sub>, procoagulant, hemorrhagic, indirect hemolytic, and edema-inducing activities but poor direct hemolytic activity. Venom administration also significantly increased levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), cholesterol, total protein, uric acid, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine in mouse serum, indicating organ damage. Histopathological examination revealed cell vacuolization, congestion, hemorrhage, inflammatory infiltrations, and necrosis in venom-exposed tissues, validating the abnormal serum biochemistry. The neutralization study revealed that VPAV had limited efficacy against BRVV, suggesting the presence of venom proteins not fully neutralized by the antivenom. Altogether, these findings suggest that the Russell's viper is a medically significant venomous snake in Bangladesh, and VPAV is only partially effective in reducing the venom's toxic effects.

The present study aimed to assess the impact of sub-chronic exposure of commonly used pesticides in Cameroon, glyphosate, metalaxyl, and cypermethrin on the growth, survival, histological structure of key organs, and tissue residue levels in <i>Archachatina marginata</i>. Therefore, sub-adult (under 30 g) <i>Archachatina marginata</i> snails were exposed for 10 weeks, once a week to field-relevant concentrations of glyphosate (0.5 g/L), metalaxyl (3.3 g/L), and cypermethrin (2 g/L), while the control group was exposed with tap water. The experiment was repeated four times. Survival and body weight were recorded weekly. Post exposure, tissue residues were analyzed by GC-MS, and histological examinations of the kidney and ovo-testis (snails' gonad) were performed. The result showed no significant differences in the survival or external morphology of exposed snails. However, deeper statistical analyses revealed that snails exposed to metalaxyl had significantly lower final weights compared to all other groups with a mean loss of -8.7 g (-26.6%). A histological examination revealed visible alteration in the kidney and ovo-testis tissues of treated snails, though these changes could not be confirmed statistically. Moreover, pesticide residues were detected in the tissues of treated animals, with trace amounts of glyphosate and cypermethrin also found in control snails, likely due to prior contamination or cross-cage drift. In conclusion, sub-chronic exposure to field-used pesticides did not induce mortality in <i>Archachatina marginata</i> but did affect growth and tissue integrity, especially under metalaxyl exposure. These findings raise concerns about sub-lethal toxicity and food safety risks and support the use of <i>Archachatina marginata</i> as a bioindicator in pesticide-exposed environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":17421,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Toxicology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"6365547"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12449114/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145113602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior to market distribution, pesticide-containing products must undergo safety evaluations, including assessments of potential skin and eye irritation and allergic responses. In this study, we conducted one of the first comparative in vivo evaluations of commercial insecticidal formulations containing cypermethrin (Gusano 300 EC), pymetrozine (Vorum 50 WG), and indoxacarb-emamectin benzoate (Endorse Plus 160/20 OD) using internationally recognized protocols based on OECD 404 (skin irritation), OECD 405 (eye irritation), and OECD 406 (skin sensitization). The results showed that the cypermethrin formulation caused minimal skin irritation, mild eye irritation, and skin sensitization. The pymetrozine formulation did not cause skin irritation or sensitization but induced mild eye irritation. The indoxacarb-emamectin Benzoate formulation caused mild eye irritation and skin sensitization, with minimal skin irritation. These findings contribute novel data to the toxicological profile of these pesticide formulations and support future safety evaluations and regulatory assessments.</p>","PeriodicalId":17421,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Toxicology","volume":"2025 ","pages":"1282928"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12401598/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144992860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
