Toxicity of antimony in housefly after whole-life-cycle exposure: Changes in growth, development, redox homeostasis, mitochondrial function, and fecundity by Yuming Zhang, Jinghua Lv, Xiaoli Sun, Yiwen Zhang, Menghua Shao, Bingbing Shi, Yajie Zhang, Jihai Gu, Chenchen Zhao, Fengsong Liu

“…To elucidate the toxicity of Sb and its mechanism of action, this study aimed to investigate the adverse effects of Sb on a cosmopolitan insect, housefly (Musca domestica), under a whole life cycle (from embryonic to adult stage) exposure through the examination of a suite of parameters, including biological, physiological, behavioral, and molecular endpoints. A range of Sb concentrations, including moderate contamination (0.07 mM), heavy contamination (0.7 mM), and extreme contamination (7 and 70 mM), were conducted in the study. …”
