Pesticide Action Network

A report entitled Chemical Trespass was issued in May 2004 by the Pesticide Action Network (Schafer et al., 2006). It contained detailed analysis of 2000/01 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) OP urinary metabolite data and used published methods to estimate exposure levels to parent compounds from creatinine corrected urinary metabolite levels. They focused on chlorpyrifos and its metabolite 3,4,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP), and found that chlorpyrifos exposures for children ages 6-11 and 12-19 exceeded EPA s chronic population-adjusted dose (cPAD) by surprisingly wide margins. Geometric mean TCP levels were 3 to 4.6 times higher than the EPA-estimated safe dose, as shown in Fig. 14.2. The more heavily exposed children received daily doses more than ten times the safe level. [Pg.289]

Butter is concentrated milk fat, so any of the hormones or pesticides contained in the milk increase when it is made into butter. The Pesticide Action Network of North America ranks nonorganic butter as the food most contaminated with persistent organic pollutants (POPs), some of the most dangerous toxic chemicals. [Pg.18]

Pesticide Action Network Asia-Pacific (PAN-AP)4 is the regional arm of PAN-International, and is co-ordinated from Kuala Lumpur. It has autonomous national branches such as those in the the Philippines and Indonesia. PAN-AP is dedicated to helping women, agricultural workers, farmers and peasants protect their health and environment, as well as ensure their safety from hazards of pesticide use. It believes that pesticides are unnecessary and harmful thus their use must be reduced if not altogether eliminated. For this reason, PAN-AP closely monitors pesticide production, trade and use. [Pg.56]
