Abstract
Metasystox (O-O-dimethyl-S-2-ethylsulphinyl), 3 mg/kg body weight, intraperitoneally (ip) was injected daily for 10 days. The effects of the pesticide on various lipid fractions in the discrete areas of the brain were studied. The daily ip dose of metasystox depleted the level of total lipids, phospholipids, cholesterol and gangliosides in cerebral hemisphere, cerebellum and brain stem.
