TL;DR: The underlying possible mechanisms of action and their possible roles in adverse developmental and reproductive processes are discussed and where possible a linkage is made to some existing epidemiological data.

TL;DR: This review is based on more than 300 studies published over the period 1980-1999 on biological monitoring of pesticide exposure, and includes measurements of early effects attributable to interaction between the chemical agent and the human body.

TL;DR: A wide range of studies concerned with analytical methods for biological monitoring of exposure to pesticides is reviewed in this paper, where all phases of analytical procedures are assessed, including sampling and storage, sample preparation and analysis, and validation of methods.

TL;DR: An analysis of risk mitigation measures taken by countries around the world facing the current COVID-19 outbreak gathers lessons learnt, providing an update on the current knowledge for authorities, sectors and first responders on the effectiveness of said measures, and may allow enhanced prevention, preparedness and response for future outbreaks.

TL;DR: Current epidemiological studies are inadequate to raise conclusions on the immunotoxic risk associated to pesticide exposure, and animal and in vitro studies are also important and necessary to scientifically support epidemiological evidences on pesticide-induced immunotoxicity.
