Estimating health risk assessment due to pesticide exposure through dietary intake in biomonitoring of metabolites in Indian children's public health

Pesticide residues are one of the most dangerous things that can affect the safety and quality of agro-food. We assessed study participants' long-term dietary exposure to 17 OPs and looked at how conventional food consumption and OP urinary metabolites in young children's and adolescents' urine samples impacted this exposure. We investigate the OP pesticide and metabolite concentrations in the study participants' diet and urine for the extraction and quantitative analyses of pesticides by using the QuEChERS method & followed by the LC-MS/MS. We gathered the food intake data of around 6–15-year-old (N = 905) child volunteers based on parent interviews and food questionnaires from the study proforma and also collected their urine samples. The health risk assessments through EDI, ADI, and chronic or long-term health (HQ) were estimated. Our results suggest that 17 OP pesticides were found in food samples. Among 905 study participants based on diet, there was a significa...
