Scientists from the United States of America said that pesticide chlorpyrifos insecticide which is widely used in the causes of changes in the structure of the brain in children. According to researchers under the supervision of Virginia Rowe from Columbia University in New York, they spotted a number of Altdkhmat gyri in the brain in children who were exposed before birth to high doses of this insecticide.
The researchers noted in their study, published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the American Academy of Science found that this convoluted depends a lot of knowledge and capacity of children's behavioral and brain volume in children does not change significantly the overall result of exposure to this pesticide.
The researchers also confirmed that previous experiences on animals have shown similar results. The team of researchers used data on 369 children in a convalescent centers. These data focused on the extent to which the mothers of these children to this pesticide and aromatic hydrocarbons and tobacco smoke in their surrounding medium when they were still in the womb of their mothers.
Among these children 28 children have been exposed to high doses of a substance chlorpyrifos and 38 others were exposed to a low percentage of it. Previous studies have shown a relationship between this article and the low level of intelligence in children.
And supports scientists to use this article on the impact of toxic pesticide on the nerves where Osatillekolanestres negate the work of an enzyme, which disrupts communication between neurons and muscle cells between the same thing that happens when dealing with rights of the material itself.
