The researchers found that family members in the study, and preschool children in particular, are at high risk for exposure to arsenic, dieldrin, DDE, dioxins and acrylamide. |
Pesticides such as dichloro diphenyl trichloroethane, dieldrin, and aldrin were dropped from planes like bombs. |
The pesticides endosulfan, toxaphene, and dieldrin have estrogenic effects on human estrogen sensitive cells. |
The pollutants are aldrin, chlordane, DDT, dieldrin, dioxins, endrin, furans, heptachlor, hexachlorobenzene, mirex, PCBs and toxaphene. |
Endosulfan is an organochlorine pesticide as are DDT, dieldrin, and chlordane. |
They are urging farmers to rid their farms of de-registered chemicals such as DDT, Dieldrin and persistent organochlorine pesticides. |
