o,p’-DDT is an organochlorine pesticide that induces mortality of malaria mosquito (A. quadrimaculatus) fourth-instar larvae and A. aegypti larvae when used at concentrations ranging from 0.005 to 0.03 and 0.025 to 5 ppm, respectively.{37593,37594} It induces 100% mortality of goldfish (C. auratus) at a concentration of 4 ppm.{37594} o,p’-DDT is estrogenic, increasing oviduct weight and glycogen content of chicken and Japanese quail.{37595} It enhances mammary gland differentiation and increases epithelial cell proliferation in mammary terminal end buds in pubertal female rats.{37596} o,p’-DDT is a persistent organic pollutant (POP) and is elevated in the sera of pregnant women in malaria-endemic regions of South Africa.{37597} Formulations containing o,p’-DDT have been used to control mosquito populations and prevent the spread of malaria.
