摘要: The Non-Occupational Pesticide Exposure Study, funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, was designed to assess total human exposures 32 pesticides and pesticide degradation products in non-occupational environment; however, study focused primarily on inhalation exposures. Two sites—Jacksonville, Florida (USA) Springfield/Chicopee, Massachusetts (USA)—were studied during three seasons: Summer 1986 (Jacksonville only), Spring 1987, Winter 1988. Probability samples of 49 72 persons participated individual site/seasons. primary environmental monitoring consisted 24-hr indoor, personal, outdoor air analyzed gas chromtography/mass spectrometry chromatography/electron capture detection. Indoor personal concentrations tended be higher Jacksonville than Springfield/Chicopee. Concentrations highest summer, lower spring, lowest winter. were generally comparable usually much concentrations. Inhalation exposure exceeded dietary for cyclodiene termiticides used mainly home. Dietary greater many other pesticides. risks uncertain (depending rates degradation) but negligible data insufficient support risk assessments food, dermal contact, or house dust
