    J Expo Sci Environ Epidemiol 16:387-96. 2006
    ..The association of metabolite levels with time spent outside, and the absence of methamidophos in homes indicates that children's exposures occurred primarily outdoors...

    ..However, this study did not consider any pathway of exposure other than inhalation (e.g. diet, dermal, etc.) and the risk assessment should be evaluated in that context...

    Cynthia L Curl
    Department of Environmental Health, School of Public Health and Community Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, USA
    Environ Health Perspect 111:377-82. 2003
    ..Consumption of organic produce appears to provide a relatively simple way for parents to reduce their children's exposure to OP pesticides...
