The resulting lost protein, PON1, breaks down organophosphates in land mammals.

The pesticides, which studies show are harmful to bees, will be prohibited in open fields by the end of 2018.

Researchers pinpoint a protein that can metabolize at least one of the insecticides, highlighting a route to identifying compounds that are friendlier to the critical pollinators.

Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, is designed to be toxic to plants, but scientists observe some untoward effects on animals in the lab. 

Organophosphates jeopardize dozens of species, a federal review finds.

The approval of the Roundup ingredient follows an extensive debate amidst conflicting evidence over the health effects of the world’s most popular weed killer. 

The report provides evidence that goes against concerns that Monsanto’s popular herbicide, Roundup, is carcinogenic. 

Women who ate more produce known to harbor pesticides were less likely to succeed with fertility treatment than women who ate fewer of these fruits and vegetables.

A group evaluating glyphosate’s cancer risk omitted evidence that the chemical is not carcinogenic.
