While the effects of OPs via Cholinesterase inhibition are transient, there are longer-term neurological effects mediated through the neuro

Clearly this approach has merit in the testing of chemicals, as reproductive tests can be much more sensitive than those relying on acute mortality. A comparison of such data is given for heavy metals on fish in Table 3.1.

For this reason effects of pollutants on genetic material are considered separately from reproductive effects.

The earliest examples, such as nervous disorders among makers of hats (‘mad as a hatter’) and cancer in chimney sweeps, were cases where an abnormally high incidence of disease was noted and tra
