  • Resumen del Proyecto

    It has been estimated that 2.5 million tons of pesticides are used worldwide each year and the number is increasing with the passage of time. A late 20th century, sales reached 40 billion dollars annually worldwide, corresponding to 2,800 million kilograms of active ingredients and more than 50,000 commercial formulations. Developing countries use about 40% of this total. More than a thousand formulations or trade names are used worldwide as insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, rodenticides and antimicrobial (WHO/UNEP, 1990; PNUMA/OMS, 1992; OPS, 2002). The word biomarker has been used extensively in the last decade. Exposure biomarkers are used to evaluate the exposure and usually measure a chemical substance or its metabolites in human tissues (eg, urine or blood), whereas the biomarkers of effect are used to assess the level of adverse effects caused by exposure. Currently there is a number of relatively well established biomarker of exposure / internal dose and also to some extent effects biomarkers. Biomonitoring studies of people exposed to pesticides have shown a high level of...Ver mas
