THE INFLUENCE OF SYNTHETIC PYRETHROIDS TO FISH

Abstract

The pyrethroids are the fourth and the youngest class of insecticides. They are synthetic analogues of natural pyrethrins – extracted from Chryzanthemum flowers. The pyrethroids are extremely toxic to aquatic organisms, included fish. Exposure to pyrethroids showed behavioral, hematological and physiological changes in fish. They cause histological changes inner organs: gills, liver, posterior kidney and leukocytes. They affect the fish reproduction and growth. Because of their toxic influence on fish and other aquatic orga-nisms the pyrethroids should be used very carefully near surface waters and other water basins.
