The effects of carbaryl and trichlorphon on differentiating mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells.

The ability of the carbamate pesticide carbaryl (CB) and the organophosphate pesticide trichlorphon (TCL) to inhibit the outgrowth of axon-like processes was studied using mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells induced to differentiate by serum withdrawal. At concentrations of 1 and 2 microg/ml (4.97 and 9.
