THE EVENTS THAT OCCUR FROM EXPOSURE TO ENVIRONMENTALLY INDUCED DISEASE AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH BIOMARKERS OF EXPOSURE, EFFECT AND SUSCEPTIBILITY *
Pesticides are widely dispersed in the environment and exposure to them is almost unavoidable, mainly through the food chain. During the peak period of its use, DDT was so ubiquitous that it could be detected in ice core samples taken in the Antarctic, even though it had never been used on that cont...
