Occupational exposure to pesticides in family agriculture and the oxidative, biochemical and hematological profile in this agricultural model

摘要

Aims: Family agriculture represents 80% of the Brazilian rural population, and rural workers linked to this agricultural model are also occupationally exposed to pesticides, which causes health risks for this part of the population. Thus, assessing health conditions becomes important and necessary as a form of biomonitoring of markers that can be used in effective health programs for agricultural workers.
