| Abstrakt: | Background: Chlorpyrifos belongs to a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide that has high toxicity, is metabolized in the liver by the oxidation reaction, and can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Acetylcholinesterase inhibition generates the reactive oxygen species and induces oxidative stress, which ultimately results in cellular damage like in the kidney. Examining blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels, creatinine, and kidney histopathology is an appropriate indicator to assess the toxicity of chlorpyrifos to the degree of damage to cells and kidney tissue. Materials and Methods: This research used to determine the effect of duration of exposure to chlorpyrifos and dose-response relationships is important for early detection of the effects of chlorpyrifos toxicity on health. The research study was a true experimental (completely randomized design) consisting of 30 subjects divided into 5 groups. Controlled Group (K1) given 1 mg/kg BW Tween 20 and NaCl 0, 9% until the 56th day. The chlorpyrifos exposed group (P1, P2, P3, and P4) was given chlorpyrifos 5 mg/kg BW for 7, 14, 28, and 56 days. After the treatment, BUN and creatinine levels were measured, and microscopic changes in the kidney were analyzed. The results of BUN, creatinine, and kidney histopathologic were analyzed using the analysis of variance statistical test. Results: The data result showed that compared to the control group, there were significant increases of BUN and creatinine (P = 0.013 and P = 0.003). Histopathological examinations of kidney glomerulus diameter were also smaller compared to the control group (P = 0.00). All the data measurement indicates significant differences compared to the control group. Conclusions: We concluded that sub-chronic oral exposure to chlorpyrifos at low doses can damage the kidneys and cause kidney failure.
