Overview

Investigates diflubenzuron's effects on oxidative stress in non-target scorpions, suggesting potential ecological risks.

Key Points

  • The research aims to assess the biochemical impact of diflubenzuron on the scorpion Aegaeobuthus gibbosus.
  • Exposed scorpions to diflubenzuron at 1 and 10 mg/L for 96 hours.
  • Sampled hemolymph fluid and muscle tissues (femur and telson).
  • Analyzed oxidative stress parameters, including antioxidant enzyme activities.
  • Hemolymph fluid showed significant changes in total antioxidant status and oxidative stress levels (p < 0.05).
  • Superoxide dismutase activity decreased in telson muscles at 10 mg/L diflubenzuron (p < 0.05).
  • Activities of catalase and glutathione peroxidase increased in telson and femur muscle tissues (p < 0.05).
