Assessment of imidacloprid related exposure using imidacloprid-olefin and desnitro-imidacloprid: Neonicotinoid insecticides in human urine in Wuhan, China

Environment International, 2020
While neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) have been widely used worldwide, limited studies have measured specific metabolites of imidacloprid (IMI, the most commonly used NNI) in human urine. To better understand human exposure to NNIs, 10 parent compounds,
