Drevenkar V, Radic Z, Vasilic Z, Reiner E: Dialkylphosphorus metabolites in the urine and activities of esterases in the serum as biochemical indices for human absorption of organophosphorus pesticides. Arch Environ Contam Toxicol. 1991 Apr;20(3):417-22.
Ninety-seven agricultural workers were monitored for absorption of the organophosphorus pesticides methidathion, vamidothion, and azinphos-methyl, which were sprayed in an orchard during two seasons.
This study confirmed that dialkylphosphorus metabolites in the urine are a more sensitive index of absorption than cholinesterase inhibition in the serum but lack of correlation between cholinesterase inhibition and metabolite concentration indicates that both parameters should be monitored. |
