The Changes of Erythrocyte Indices in Pesticide Factory Workers
Abstract Background and Objectives: Erythrocyte indices are helpful for monitoring the erythrocyte synthesis and liver condition. The pesticide factories’ staff are being exposed to poisoning. This article aims to evaluate the effect of pesticides on blood indices of subjects which are exposed to organophosphate toxins. Material and Methods: This cohort study was conducted on the 63 emplo...
متن کاملOrganophosphate Pesticide Exposure Reduced Serum Paraoxonase1 (PON1) Activity Which Correlated With Oxidative Stress in Pesticide Factory Workers
Background & Aims of the Study: Serum paraoxonase (PON1) is a potent antioxidant that is associated with the pathogenesis of several diseases. Also, it is reported that environmental factors can modulate the PON1 activity. In this study, the association between the Organophosphates (OP) exposure and plasma Paraoxonase/Arylesterase (PON1) activity and also OP-induced oxidative stress was investi...
متن کاملEffects of occupational exposure in pesticide plant on workers' serum and erythrocyte cholinesterase activity.
OBJECTIVES The determination of cholinesterase activity has been commonly applied in the biomonitoring of exposure to organophosphates and carbamates and in the diagnosis of poisoning with anticholinesterase compounds. One of the groups who are at risk of pesticide intoxication are the workers engaged in the production of these chemicals. AIMS The aim of this study was to assess the effect of...
متن کاملتغییرات سطح آنتی اکسیدان ها و پراکسیداسیون لیپیدها در کارکنان کارخانه تولید آفت کش
Background and Aim: Organophosphate compoounds are cholinesterase activity inhibitors. Contact with them cause changes in the blood antioxidant enzyme levels and lipid peroxidation. The aim of this research was to investigate the simultaneous changes in cholinesterase, total serum antioxidant levels, and activities of some of the erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes and find possible correlations am...
متن کاملSerum cholinesterase in analbuminemia.
S EVERAL SUGGESTIONS have been made to explain the parallelism between serum cholinesterase and serum albuniin levels in chronic liver disease-first recognized by Faber (i), and since, by many othersand the moderate fall in serum cholinesterase found to occur ill normal persons after the infusion of albumin (2). Kunkel and Ward (3) suggested that a normal serum albumin level was needed for the ...
