摘要

Although banned in over 50 countries, paraquat is a widely used herbicide in Thailand. Animal studies have found developmental impacts from fetal exposures, but there is no human data on potential fetal exposures among agricultural workers. This study recruited 79 pregnant women from three hospitals in agricultural areas in Thailand, and assessed paraquat concentrations in the urine of the women at 28 weeks of pregnancy, delivery and 2 months postpartum. Paraquat levels were also measured in the meconium of neonates. The subjects were interviewed about personal characteristics, agricultural activities and pesticide use patterns. The geometric mean (GSD) urinary paraquat concentrations at 28 weeks of pregnancy, delivery and 2 months postpartum were 2.04 (4.22), 2.06 (5.04) and 2.42 (5.33) ng/ml, respectively. The geometric mean (GSD) paraquat concentration in meconium was 33.31 (4.59) ng/g. There were no significant differences in urinary paraquat concentrations at 28 weeks of pregnancy, delivery and 2 months postpartum or in meconium levels between those whose self-reported occupation was agriculturist compared to those in non-agricultural occupations. However there were significant differences in paraquat exposures for those who reported agriculture related activities including: working outside, living near farmland where pesticides are sprayed, having a family member who is an agriculturist, drinking well water, or use of herbicides or use of paraquat by the pregnant woman or a family member.
