By this practice the farmers are also continually being exposed to pesticides and this can lead to an array of health effects depending on the pesticide's toxicity and the dose take in by the body (Coble et al. 2005).
Arsenic is a metalloid found throughout the world and human exposure through ingestion of contaminated water and food has been associated with a wide array of health effects [ 1].
Because of the array of health effects caused by noise, and the relative importance of exposure timing for some health effects, a variety of exposure metrics and limits are in use today.
Air toxics are associated with a wide array of health effects, and health standards for several of these pollutants have been developed to protect for these adverse effects, particularly in countries with a more developed environmental health agenda, such as the United States.
First, the term "pesticides" encompasses a diverse array of chemicals that can potentially produce a wide variety of health effects.
I have many reasons for being against GMOs: They've been linked to an increase in pesticide use, the proliferation of superweeds, our bee population decline, and an array of adverse health effects like immune problems, reproductive health issues, and behavioral abnormalities.
Flavan-3-ols (the subclass of compounds containing rhodoeosein) have been reported to have a wide array of positive health effects such as antioxidant, anti-viral, anticarcinogenic, antimicrobial, and cardiopreventation (reviewed in [ 53]).
Although TCE exposure has been associated with a wide array of adverse health effects, including neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, developmental toxicity, endocrine toxicity, and several forms of cancer [see overview article by Chiu et al. (2006a)], most of the mechanistic information on TCE toxicity focuses on the liver and kidney.
The heavy metal lead (Pb) is a well-studied toxicant known to cause a wide array of adverse health effects.
PCDD/Fs and DL-PCBs are able to cause an array of adverse health effects, like cancer, damage to the central and peripheral nervous systems, reproductive and developmental disorders, and disruption of the immune and endocrine systems [ 8- 11].
Although microbial agents are the largest cause of waterborne diseases worldwide, chemical contaminants in drinking water have been associated with a broad array of adverse health effects, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological disease, and miscarriage.
