Abstract
The aim of this work was to determinate the effect of carbamate insecticide bendiocarb (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-benzodioxol-4-yl N-methylcarbamate) on selected parameters of rabbit homeostasis. Animals were divided into four groups (control C, and experimental groups E1, E2 and E3 according to days of administration 10, 15 and 25 days). Animals from experimental groups received bendiocarb per os in a dose 5 mg/kg of body weight per day. Significant increase of creatinine content in E3 group (the longest administration of bendiocarb), increase of aspartate aminotransferase (E1 and E3 against control group) and gamma glutamyl transferase (E3 against control group) and decrease of glutamate dehydrogenase (E1 against control group) inform about possible failure of liver and/or kidney caused by bendiocarb. Decrease of haemoglobin (significantly in E3 group against control group), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) concentration (in all experimental groups), platelet count (in all experimental groups) can signify defection in haemoplastic system.
