Abstract | The data presented in the article show significant differences in chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticide residue values between male and female migrant workers and between those under 20 and those over 40 years of age. These differences are believed in part due to greater exposure by the older subjects and the males to a work environment where pesticides are prevalent. |
