ABSTRACT

 

Oliveira C, Vassilieff VS,  Vassilieff I., Residues and placental transfer of lambda-cyhalothrin in goats. Onl J Vet Res., (4): 51-57, 2000.   Residues and placental transfer of lambda-cyhalothrin were determined in pregnant and lactating goats sprayed with two therapeutic 28 mg treatments (Grenade® L 2.8%) for a 6 to 7 week period.  In pregnant goats, residues persisted for 35 days and were detected in 50 to 70% blood and 60 to 70% of colostrum samples. In lactating goats, residues were detected in 60 to 70% of blood and 60 to 80% of milk samples. The pesticide was cleared by 42 days. Before the first milking,  69% of blood samples from offspring contained residues, and 50 to 70% of suckled male offspring had residues in blood for 35 days. These results show that lambda-cyhalothrin is absorbed cutaneously and eliminated in colostrum and milk; the residues in offspring before ingestion of colostrum, demonstrated the placental transfer of cyhalothrin.

 

Key words: Residue, placental transfer, goat, lambda-cyhalothrin.
