Cancer in Children and Pesticide Exposure

Author: Moses, Marion
Date Published: 2002


This table is a selective summary of studies of cancer in children with potential exposure to pesticides. Most are from articles published in English in peer-reviewed journals. The studies are listed in chronological order by author in a reverse chronological timeline. The source of the children's exposure could be the occupation of one or both of their parents as farmers, agricultural workers, sprayers, exterminators, formulators, or other jobs. Their exposure could be from household lawn/garden, pet or other pesticide use by parents or caregivers. Or it could be from potential pesticide exposures from living on a farm, in an agricultural spray area, or near a pesticide factory, or other environmental exposures.
