Assessment of the effect of sub-lethal acute toxicity of Emamectin benzoate in using multiple biomarker approach.

Toxicology reports
Emamectin benzoate (EMB) is a potent neurotoxin agent, widely used for ectoparasites control in aquaculture, but their detailed toxicological implications in are unknown. Thus, this study was conceptualized to determine the LC and to investigate the...

Lateral flow immunoassay and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay as effective immunomethods for the detection of synthetic cannabinoid JWH-200 based on the newly synthesized hapten.

Toxicology reports
In recent years, the use of synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) as drugs of abuse has greatly increased. SCs are associated with a risk of severe poisoning or even death. Therefore, more rapid, cost effective and reliable methods are needed, especially for ...
