Abstract
Lambda cyhalothrin is one of the most important agricultural pesticides extensively used around the world. Pyrethroids are specially recommended insecticides as they have low mammalian toxicity, but they are known to cause an alteration in biochemical parameters and affect the oxidative status of the body through producing free radicals. However, it has been found that some herbal extracts can ameliorate the toxicity induced by the pesticides and other chemicals but the search for such compounds will always be an urgent need to achieve the optimum degree of amelioration. For this purpose, the present study was designed to evaluate the oxidative stress produced by lambda cyhalothrin, a synthetic type-II pyrethroid and ameliorating effect of green tea extract in albino rats.
