Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of take-home organophosphorus pesticide exposure among agricultural workers and their children.
Cynthia L. Curl,Richard A. Fenske,John C. Kissel,Jeffry H. Shirai,Thomas F Moate,William C. Griffith,Gloria D. Coronado,Beti Thompson +7 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the take-home exposure pathway contributes to residential pesticide contamination in agricultural homes where young children are present is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Pulmonary Toxicities and Carcinogenicities of Chronically Inhaled Diesel Exhaust and Carbon Black in F344 Rats
Kristen J. Nikula,Morris B. Snipes,Edward B. Barr,William C. Griffith,Rogene F. Henderson,Joe L. Mauderly +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the organic fraction of DE may not play an important role in the carcinogenicity of DE in rats, and that the average dose of DE caused similar, dose-related, nonneoplastic lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diesel Exhaust Is a Pulmonary Carcinogen in Rats Exposed Chronically by Inhalation
TL;DR: Diesel exhaust, inhaled chronically at a high concentration, is a pulmonary carcinogen in the rat and Logistic regression modeling demonstrated a significant relationship between tumor prevalence and both exposure concentration and soot lung burden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agricultural task and exposure to organophosphate pesticides among farmworkers.
TL;DR: Examination of the association between occupational task and organophosphate pesticide residues in dust and OP metabolite concentrations in urine samples of adult farmworkers and their children found workers who reported mixing, loading, or applying pesticide formulations had lower detectable levels of pesticide residue in their house or vehicle dust, compared with those who did not perform these job tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of organophosphorus pesticide metabolite levels in single and multiple daily urine samples collected from preschool children in Washington State
John C. Kissel,Cynthia L. Curl,Golan Kedan,Chensheng Lu,William C. Griffith,Dana B. Barr,Larry L. Needham,Richard A. Fenske +7 more
TL;DR: Of the four spot samples collected, first morning void samples were consistently found to be the best predictors of weighted-average daily metabolite concentration, when the data were creatinine-adjusted.
