Abstract

Blood samples were taken from agricultural workers who had been exposed to pesticides for long periods in Içel and the surrounding agricultural areas (n=150) and levels of AST, ALT, ALP, LDH, total protein, albumin and globulin in serum were determined. The same parameters were measured in 64 persons who are not exposed to pesticides in any way. Study group showed significantly higher levels of AST, ALT, ALP and LDH (p

Özet

İçel ili ve çevresi tarım alanlarında çalışan ve pestisidlerin kronik etkisine maruz kalan tarım işçilerinden kan örnekleri alınmış ve serum AST,ALT, ALP, LDH, total protein, albümin ve globülin değerleri ölçülmüştür (n=150). Aynı ölçümler pestisidlere doğrudan maruz kalmayan 64 kişide de yapılmıştır. Tarım işçilerinde AST, ALT, ALP ve LDH değerlerinde kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı bir artış gözlenirken (p
