In recent years, health risks due to exposure to low-level chemicals have drawn global attention. This project, focusing on insecticides, aimed to build a birth cohort in which their urinary exposure biomarkers could be measured and to estimate their levels during pregnancy. In addition, cross-sectional surveys were conducted in different populations to clarify the biomarker levels in 3-year-old children and if the individual difference in their metabolism could affect their urinary concentrations.
