Animal models through oral exposure

Reentry intervals are now established on the basis of (1) data on dermal absorption or dermal dose response (2) inhalation, dermal, and oral acute toxicity studies in animal models (3) foliar and soil residue dissipation data and, (4) available human exposure data. CDFA recommends several sources as useful guides for determining residues of pesticides on soil and leaf surfaces (dislodgeable residue) and conducting field reentry studies involving human volunteers (1-5). Human exposure studies may not be required if adequate animal data from (1) through (3) above are...
