Urinary excretion of diethylphosphorus metabolites in persons poisoned by quinalphos or chlorpyrifos

Abstract: The urinary excretion rates of diethyl phosphate and diethyl phosphorothioate and changes in blood cholinesterase activities were studied in fifteen persons self-poisoned either by the organophosphorus pesticide quinalphos (twelve persons) or by chlorpyrifos (three persons). The organophosphate poisoning was always indicated by a significant depression of serum and/or red blood cell cholinesterase activities. The return of serum cholinesterase activity in the range of referent values took more than 30 days and… Show more

“…Another study estimated the half-life in humans to be 3.5 to 5.5 hours based on three cases of chlorpyrifos poisonings (Vasilic et al, 1992). However, the effect on serum cholinesterase enzymes was found to persist for many days after the poisonings in this study.…”

“…As described in Section II.C, numerous chlorpyrifos metabolites have been identified in urine in a subject who ingested a near lethal dose of chlorpyrifos, including numerous glutathione-derived metabolites (Bicker et al, 2005a). Vasilic et al (1992) investigated the urinary excretion of diethylphosphate and diethylthiophosphate in three individuals who ingested toxic doses of chlorpyrifos and were treated with oximes. No parent compound was detected in the urine.…”

“…Procedures used or developed in Croatia for the analysis of dimethyl-and diethyl-phosphorus metabolites and parent compounds are summarised in reference (37). Over a decade, several studies were conducted on workers spraying OP pesticides and on accidentally or intentionally poisoned individuals, comprising about 130 subjects (38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43). The OP compounds involved were methidathion, amidothion, azinphos-methyl, quinalphos, chlorpyrifos, phosalone, thiomethon and malathion.…”
