Abstract
⺠We measured organophosphate pesticides in blood and urine of mothers and newborns. ⺠We determined paraoxonase 1 genotypes and enzyme activities. ⺠Chlorpyrifos was detectable in 70.5% and 87.5% of maternal and cord blood samples. ⺠Increased maternal paraoxonase 1 levels resulted in lower organophosphate detection in cord blood.
