Sulfentrazone decreases resistance to paraquat-induced oxidative stress in flies.
“females exposed to 0.5 mg/L also displayed reduced resistance to paraquat-induced oxidative stress.”

Sulfentrazone decreases oviposition rate in flies.
“Oviposition rate was significantly reduced at 0.25 mg/L and 0.5 mg/L”

Sulfentrazone decreases carbohydrate in flies.
“In females, a significant reduction in body weight was observed at 7 days of age, along with decreased carbohydrate levels at 30 days”

Sulfentrazone impairs climbing locomotor performance in flies.
“Moreover, exposure impaired climbing locomotor performance and exacerbated age-related functional decline.”

Sulfentrazone shortens lifespan in flies.
“The herbicide did not significantly affect developmental parameters, but significantly reduced longevity in both female and male flies.”
