Assessing Human Exposures to Pesticides
1992Pesticide use is inevitably associated with chemical exposures that range from inferred nondetectable levels to easily measurable ones using sensitive, readily available analytical tools. Whether these exposures are of any biological significance is determined by duration, dose, and biological reactivity.

Australian work exposures studies: occupational exposure to pesticides
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2016Pesticides are widely used in some occupational settings. Some pesticides have been classified as carcinogens; however, data on the number of workers exposed to pesticides are not available in Australia. The main aim of this study was to estimate the current prevalence of pesticide exposure in Australian workplaces.The analysis used data from the ...

Effects of occupational pesticide exposure on children applying pesticides
NeuroToxicology, 2008Nearly 40% of the Egyptian workforce is employed in agriculture. The cotton industry relies on children and adolescents, who work seasonally, to apply pesticides to the cotton crops. Although previous research has examined adult pesticide exposures in this workforce in Egypt, no research has examined the health effects in adolescents.

Neurotoxic concerns of human pesticide exposure
Journal of Safety Research, 1990AbstractWhile the human effects of acute pesticide poisoning are well known, significant data gaps exist with regard to what is known about some of the chronic effects, particularly neurotoxic and behavioral aspects of organophosphate exposures. The extent of this concern is particularly high in Europe where these issues are being addressed by the ...

Estimating Worker Exposure For Pesticide Registration
1992For the registration procedures of pesticides, the level of exposure during the various activities in which pesticides are handled has to be estimated. Different worker exposure models have been put forward in Europe and North America. These models are discussed and compared to each other for their output in terms of estimated levels of potential ...

International journal of epidemiology, 1994
A crop exposure matrix (CEM) was developed in the context of two Italian case-control studies. The CEM relates agricultural practices to pesticide exposures taking into account change over time and the use of chemicals by geographical area for farming. The matrix is specific to 14 areas and to 10 major crops.
