Most of approximately 1.8 billion people involved in agriculture protect their food products using pesticides especially insecticides which may remain in foods as pesticide residues. Among insecticides organophosphates such as malathion have been widely used around the world and others such as parathion has been restricted because of their toxicity. Carvacrol (CAR) is the main component of Satureja khuzestanica. Since chemical composition of foods can alter toxicity of pesticides, in this work, the effect of coadministration of CAR and organophosphates on renal function has been studied and compared with the effect of coadministration of carvacrol loaded beta cyclodextrin-alginate-chitosan (BAC) based nanoflowers. Serum levels of urea and creatinine and histological examination were analyzed after 10 days of administration of chemicals. Malathion and parathion significantly increased urea and creatinine and induced renal inflammation. However, coadministration of CAR or BAC-CAR modified urea and creatinine and improved renal inflammation. BAC-CAR modified serum levels of urea more efficient than CAR (P < 0.05). It is concluded that BAC could be considered as a carrier for drugs used to treat renal disorders. Carvacrol can be used in the formulation of organophosphate pesticides, which may control pests more efficiently than conventional organophosphate pesticides.
