Final exam select topics-pesticides Flashcards
Organophosphates target/ mechanism
phosphorylates acetylcholinesterase
what os oxon
formed when parent compound is metabolized by oxidative desulfuration (compound derived from another chemical in which a P=S bond has been replaced by a P=O bond)
what is aging
non enzymative hydrolysis of one of the 2 alkyl groups on Organophosphates
what is structure of Organophosphates
R1 R2 X and =O (or S, needs to be removed) on P
what is the mechanism of pramlidoxone + when can it be used
dephosphorylation of serine active site with Organophosphates poisoning, ONLY if it has not been aged
which pesticide causes induced delayed polyneuropathy + mechanism
Organophosphates, neuropathy target esterase (NTE) must be aged for it to occur
what pesticide causes intermediate syndrome + mechanism
Organophosphates, unknown (not AChE)
what is the mechanism of DDT
targets Na+ and slows down their opening and closing
what is an example of organochlorine compounds
DDT
what kind of thing is DDT
organochlorine
what is the less and more toxic form of DDT
more is p,p less is o,p
what is the mechanism of pyrethroids (type 2)
targets Na+ and slows down their opening and closing + also inhibits GABA
what is the mechanism of pyrethroids (type 1)
targets Na+ and slows down their opening and closing
what does DDT not effect in the cell
resting potential, rising phase or peak amplitudes
what is name of type 1 pyrethroids disease
type 1 syndrome (T) t for tremor
what is name of type 2 pyrethroids disease
type 2 syndrome (CS) sc for choreoathetosis salivation
what is the structure difference between type 1 and 2 pyrethroids
type one is R-C=O- R
type two is R-C-CN-R
what do pyrethroids do exactly to sodium channels (what type)
bind to VGSC subunit, slows rate of activating/opening and closing/inactivaion - hyperexitable state
what type of thing is nithiazine
neonicitinoid pesticide
what is the binding site diff with insects and mammals for neonicitinoids
insects its positively charged, mammals its negative
how do neonicotinoids affect insects
it must be absorbed by plants then the bug eats the plant
what does a high logP value mean for neonicotinoids
that it is very lipophilic so more toxic
