Association of in utero organophosphate pesticide exposure and fetal growth and length of gestation in an agricultural population.(Children's Health)
|
Although pesticide use is widespread, little is known about potential adverse health effects of in utero exposure. We investigated the effects of organophosphate pesticide exposure during pregnancy on fetal growth and gestational duration in a cohort of low-income, Latina women living in an agricultural community in the Salinas Valley, California. We measured nonspecific metabolites of organophosphate pesticides (dimethyl and diethyl phosphates) and metabolites specific to malathion (malathion dicarboxylic acid), chlorpyrifos [O, O-diethyl O-(3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinyl) ...
