Introduction: The Imidacloprid are widely used in agriculture to curb the loss caused by insects. The Imidacloprid are incorporated into the food chain and accumulate in the human body, as well interrupt the various metabolic pathways. The Imidacloprid is a widely applied pesticide due to their higher affinity for insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, it acts on nervous system. The insecticides exposure can be linked to cancer, endocrine disruption, reproductive effects, neurotoxicity, kidney and liver damage, birth defects, and developmental changes in a wide range of species. Aim: To observe mortality in chick embryos after exposure to various doses of Insecticide Imidacloprid in comparison to control. Methods: This present study was carried out in the department of Anatomy Govt. Medical College, Budaun and Government medical college Ambedkar Nagar U.P. on 400 fertile eggs of white leghorn chicken obtained from government poultry farm after taking permission from animal ethical committee. Chicken eggs exposed to Imidacloprid with doses 5µg, 10µg, 20µg and 40µg in a volume of 5µl, 10µl, 20µl and 40µl respectively and control same as test group. The embryos were terminated on 20th day, egg shell broken with a scalpel and embryos removed. The mortality in chick embryos observed and recorded. Results: The results show that experimental group had comparatively more cases of mortality in chick embryos in compared to controls. Conclusion: Imidacloprid exposure increases the mortality and developmental defects with increasing embryonic age. The comparatively in our study higher doses proved more toxic and also caused many developmental defects.
