Pioneering Insights: The Intersection of Pesticide Exposure, Genetic Variations, and Health Risks in Southeastern Brazilian Farmers
2024-07-31
Abstract excerpt
Brazil is the world leader in pesticide consumption, and its indiscriminate use puts farmers’ health at risk. The CYP2C9 gene stands out for encoding the CYP2C9 enzyme, which metabolizes several endogenous substrates and specific xenobiotics, especially pesticides.
