| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the toxicity of chlorpyrifos. States that "before beginning to use organophosphate or carbamate insecticides, the user must submit to a blood analysis in order to establish his/her normal level of cholinesterase. If the normal level is tool low, the tolerance to such insecticides is weak. In general, 250 people in one million are too weak." |
