“…Concerns regarding the possible long-term risk associated to carbendazim and thiophanate-methyl were also recently reported in a peer-review performed by the European Food Safety Authority (Arena et al, 2018). These concerns were strengthened by the finding of carbendazim in several handwipes (taken from participants in OBO) and strong correlation with urine samples from participants of the OBO study (Oerlemans et al, 2021).…”

“…In terms of sample collection, hand wipes are fairly simple and inexpensive to collect, typically requiring only a pre-cleaned wipe and isopropanol. Because they have been shown to be significantly associated with biomarkers of exposure in several studies across multiple classes of compounds (i.e., OPEs, phthalates, PBDEs, PCBs, phenols, some pesticides), hand wipes are a standard tool for examining individual exposure to common environmental exposures ( Levasseur et al, 2021 ; Hou et al, 2021 ; Gong et al, 2015 ; Hoffman et al, 2014 ; Hoffman et al, 2015 ; Stapleton et al, 2012 ; Hines et al, 2018 ; Frederiksen et al, 2020 ; Oerlemans et al, 2021 ).…”

Current farm systems rely on the use of Plant Protection Products (PPP) to secure high productivity and control threats to the quality of the crops. However, PPP use may have considerable impacts on human health and the environment. A study protocol is presented aiming to determine the occurrence and levels of PPP residues in plants (crops), animals (livestock), humans and other non-target species (ecosystem representatives) for exposure modelling and impact assessment. To achieve this, we designed a cross-sectional study to compare conventional and organic farm systems across Europe. Environmental and biological samples were/are being/will be collected during the 2021 growing season, at 10 case study sites in Europe covering a range of climate zones and crops. An additional study site in Argentina will inform the impact of PPP use on growing soybean which is an important European protein-source in animal feed. We will study the impact of PPP mixtures using an integrated risk assessment methodology. The fate of PPP in environmental media (soil, water and air) and in the homes of farmers will be monitored. This will be complemented by biomonitoring to estimate PPP uptake by humans and farm animals (cow, goat, sheep and chicken), and by collection of samples from non-target species (earthworms, fish, aquatic and terrestrial macroinvertebrates, bats, and farm cats). We will use data on PPP residues in environmental and biological matrices to estimate exposures by modelling. These exposure estimates together with health and toxicity data will be used to predict the impact of PPP use on environment, plant, animal and human health. The outcome of this study will then be integrated with socio-economic information leading to an overall assessment used to identify transition pathways towards more sustainable plant protection and inform decision makers, practitioners and other stakeholders regarding farming practices and land use policy.
