Urinary p-nitrophenol as a biomarker of household exposure to methyl parathion.
Methyl parathion (MP) is an organophosphate pesticide illegally applied to the interiors of many hundreds of homes throughout the United States by unlicensed pesticide applicators. Public health authorities developed a protocol for investigating contaminated homes and classifying their need for public health interventions. This protocol included environmental screening for MP contamination and ...
متن کاملMeasurement of p-nitrophenol in the urine of residents whose homes were contaminated with methyl parathion.
During the last several years, illegal commercial application of methyl parathion (MP) in domestic settings in several U.S. Southeastern and Midwestern States has affected largely inner-city residents. As part of a multiagency response involving the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and state and local health departmen...
متن کاملMicrobial decontamination of parathion and p-nitrophenol in aqueous media.
A mixed microbial culture was adapted to growth on parathion to determine the feasibility of using microorganisms to detoxify concentrated parathion in agricultural wastes. In a 600-ml chemostat, the culture was able to degrade 50 mg of parathion per liter per h. Para-nitrophenol, produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of parathion, caused delays in exponential growth which were directly proportional...
متن کاملSolid Phase Extraction for 1-Hydroxypyrene as a Biomarker of Occupational Exposure to PAHs Prior to High Performance Liquid Chromatography
Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene is frequently used as a major metabolite and biological indicator of the overall exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. In this study, solid phase extraction was appropriately conditioned with regard to sample pH, sample concentration, loading flow rate, elution solvent, washing solvent, sample volume and sorbent mass. Octadecyl silica cartridge (C<su...
متن کاملefficacy of urinary hippuric acid as a biomarker of low level exposure to toluene in petroleum depot workers
exposure to toluene can be associate with genotoxicity, neurological dysfunction, reproductive toxicity, and etc. biomonitoring of hippuric acid (ha) is used for a long time as an occupational exposure index to toluene. the aim of this study was to explore efficiency of ha as a biomarker of exposure to low level of toluene for iranian petroleum depot workers in 2011. personal monitoring to tolu...
