may be especially sensitive to the health risks of pesticide exposure as their internal organs are not fully developed. For example, their immune systems may not be able to protect them against pesticides and their excretory systems may not be able to excrete these chemicals. Pes-ticide exposure may also permanently affect development negatively by blocking the absorption of nutrients neces-sary for development. This issue of the Northwest Bulletin presents results of re-cent research on children and pesticides, and provides spe-cific recommendations for reducing children’s exposures. In the editorial, Elaine Faustman discusses the biochemical, molecular, and exposure mechanisms underlying children’s susceptibilities to pesticides and other...
