Abstract

 The effect of administration albino male rats a daily diet polluted with propargite and benomyl a concentration of 1.22,2.44 ,0.5 and 1.0 ppm respectively for 30 days, on the growth, biochemical parameters and its accumulation in organs.
The tested pesticides significantly increased of body weight at all levels with different variation.Both pesticides significantly increased the levels of bilirubin uric acid, creatinine, Aspartate aminotransferease (AST) and Alanine aminotransferease (ALT) while significantly decrease the level of cholesterol and Alkaline phosphate (AP).
