Toxicity of trifluralin herbicide in a representative of the edaphic fauna: Histopathology of the midgut of Rhinocricus padbergi (Diplopoda)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-10-01)
The aim of this study was to use the diplopod Rhinocricus padbergi as test organism to verify the possible toxic effects of the herbicide trifluralin in a representative of the edaphic fauna. Histological and histochemical ...
Ultrastructural Alterations in the Midgut of Diplopods after Subchronic Exposure to Substrate Containing Sewage Mud
(Springer, 2011-06-01)
The use of sewage mud in agriculture has generated several discussions due to the risks of soil contamination mainly by metals. Due to the intimate contact of the diplopods with soil, they have been successfully used in ...
