Toxicology and national regulations

Latest comment: 7 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Smokefoot considered the use of this 2009 report showing a possible association between atrazine exposure from farmland surface water and birth defects in US children. The assumption from the study is that exposure during the agricultural seasons of atrazine use (April-July) was associated with a trend for more infant birth defects - an example of correlation by association is not evidence of causation, which the authors acknowledged. I don't feel this outdated source adds significantly to the article.

The existing section on toxicology leans mostly on US EPA evidence, then is followed by mention of atrazine regulations and advisories by the WHO, Europe, Australia, Canada, Japan, and the US. Given that toxicology evidence forms the basis for regulations in each jurisdiction, these sections could be updated, discussed together, and abbreviated.
