Overview

In vitro assessment reveals developmental deformities and altered enzyme activities in honey bee larvae, highlighting physiological risks of pesticide residues.

Key Points

  • Sublethal spinetoram exposure disrupts acetylcholinesterase and antioxidant enzyme activity across developmental stages, leading to severe morphological deformities.
  • Chronic LD50 thresholds reached 0.040 and 0.017 μg a.i./larva, while spinetoram treatments significantly increased adult deformities compared to control groups.
  • In vitro larval rearing assessment reveals altered superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, highlighting physiological risks from agricultural pesticide residues.
