Hardt J, Angerer J: Biological monitoring of workers after the application of insecticidal pyrethroids. Int Arch Occup Environ Health. 2003 Sep;76(7):492-8. Epub 2003 Jun 24.
METHODS: Thirty-six workers who applied insecticides and other pesticides in Germany collected samples of their urine (24 h) after having used various pyrethroids (alpha-cypermethrin, cypermethrin, cyfluthrin, deltamethrin, tau-fluvalinate, permethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin) in agriculture, greenhouses or indoor pest control.
Biological monitoring was carried out and metabolites were analysed in 61 urine samples by GC-MS: cis-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid and trans-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid ( cis-Cl (2) CA and trans-Cl (2) CA), cis-3-(2,2-dibromovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid ( cis-Br (2) CA), 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA) and 4-fluoro-3-phenoxybenzoic acid (FPBA). |
