Heavy metal and pesticide exposure: A mixture of potential toxicity and carcinogenicity

, 2020
There is a growing body of evidence that various pesticides and heavy metals are carcinogenic. If not directly, there is also evidence that shows that these compounds can participate in carcinogenesis in a passive or permissive role, facilitating other ...

Pesticide exposure assessment

Toxicology Letters, 1995
Unintended, accidental, or unavoidable human exposures may result from pesticide use. Risk Characterization provides registrants, regulators, and the public a means to assess relative risks of pesticide use. Exposure Assessments are less standardized.

Environmental Equity and Pesticide Exposure

Toxicology and Industrial Health, 1993
Although people of color and low-income groups bear a disproportionate share of the health risks from exposure to pesticides, research attention has been meager, and data on acute and chronic health effects related to their toxic exposures are generally lacking.

Pesticide exposure to greenhouse handgunners

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1989
The exposure of pesticide applicators in a commercial greenhouse facility was assessed. Data were collected from four handgunners who applied fluvalinate (insecticide), chlorpyrifos (insecticide), ethazol (fungicide), and dicofol (miticide). Potential exposure was measured with exposure pads placed outside all clothing of the applicator. Handwashes and

Residential Pesticide Exposure and Neuroblastoma

Epidemiology, 2001
Neuroblastoma is the most common neoplasm in children under 1 year of age. We examined the relation between residential exposure to pesticides and neuroblastoma, using data from a case-control study of risk factors for neuroblastoma. Incident cases of neuroblastoma (N = 538) were identified through the Pediatric Oncology Group and the Children's Cancer

Organophosphate pesticide exposure and neurodegeneration

Cortex, 2016
Organophosphate pesticides (OPs) are used extensively throughout the world. The main sources of contamination for humans are dietary ingestion and occupational exposures. The major concerns related to OP exposure are delayed effects following high level exposures as well as the impact of low level exposures during the lifespan which are suggested to be

Pesticide exposure and genotoxic effects as measured by DNA damage and human monitoring biomarkers

International Journal of Environmental Health Research, 2019
Occupational pesticides exposure rises health concern due to genotoxicity and accumulation of pesticides in human biological matrices. Continuous and sublethal exposure to pesticides had been associated with oxidative stress, mutagenic and cell death ...

Pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease: Dose‐response meta‐analysis of observational studies

Regulatory toxicology and pharmacology : RTP, 2018
The cause of late onset Parkinson's disease (PD) remains unknown. Evidence suggested that lifelong exposure to pesticides might contribute to the development of neurodegenerative diseases, but the results were controversial.
