Organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides and bladder cancer: A case‐control study
Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2019Exposure to pesticides is associated with an increase in the incidence of cancer. We aimed to investigate the association of serum organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) levels and GSTM1/GSTT1 gene polymorphism with ...

Organochlorine pesticides and human health
Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1971Summary In autopsy specimens of body fat from non-occupationally exposed residents of Dade County, Florida, the mean concentrations of DDT-derived material were 9·7 ppm in 42 cases of accidental death, 9·4 ppm in 31 individuals who used pesticides in home or garden only sparingly, 19·4 ppm in 65 moderate users and 27 ppm in 22 individuals who used ...

Organochlorine pesticides in Argentinian butter
Science of The Total Environment, 1994Organochlorine pesticide residues were analysed in 150 samples of butter collected from several places in the cities of Santa Fe and Rosario (Argentine Republic) over a period of 18 months. Pesticides analysed in butter were: HCH (alpha and gamma isomers), heptachlor and its epoxide, aldrin, dieldrin, and DDT (p,p' DDE, o,p' DDT and p,p' DDT).

Organochlorine Pesticides in Seals and Porpoises
Nature, 1967Seals and porpoises in Scotland and Canada, far from the sites of application of pesticides, can accumulate high concentrations of residues in their blubber. These chemicals are spreading through the long food chain which ends with seals and porpoises and obviously cannot be confined to their place of discharge.

Accumulation of Organochlorine Pesticides in Man
Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1972Abstract It is generally known that organochlorine pesticides are slowly eliminated and that they accumulate in humans. By using pharmacokinetic relationships, these properties were quantitated to make them more meaningful. Repeated dosing causes the average level of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane at equilibrium to rise to 500 times that following a ...

Organochlorine Pesticides in Antarctica
Nature, 1967The first reports of organochlorine pesticides in wildlife in the vicinity of the US Antarctic base at McMurdo Sound suggested that local human activity might be responsible. Measurements of samples from the British Antarctic Survey Base at Signy Island in the South Orkneys now suggest that there is a world-wide pattern of distribution by means of the ...

Organochlorine pesticide residues in Songkla Lake
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 1994The water quality of Songkla Lake for organochlorine (OC) pesticide contamination was studied from chosen sampling sites (stations) using the lakes geographic data and pollution sources. The water samples were collected monthly from 13 stations in Songkla Lake during September 1991-November 1992.

Biodegradation of Organochlorine Pesticides
2015The widespread use of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), mainly in the past, has caused serious environmental problems. Many OCPs were recently categorized as persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that should be controlled as toxic environmental contaminants.
