ABSTRACT

Lambda-Cyhalothrin (LCT) is widely used pyrethroid pesticide for pests control in agriculture, home, health and so on. The aim of this study was to investigate toxicity of sub-lethal doses of Lambda-Cyhalothrin on birth outcome of pregnant female wistar rats (Rattus novergicus). Animals were randomly assigned into four equal groups. Group 1 (control) received normal feed and water. Animals in group 2 to 4 were treated with three concentrations of lambda-cyhalothrin 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.8% respectively through feed and drinking water ad libitum from gestation day 1 through to weaning. The results on litter size indicates a significant dose dependent decrease (p
