Chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate ingredient of several important insecticides, has been manufactured at The Dow Chemical Company for 25 years. A previous morbidity study among employees of The Dow Chemical Company found no increased prevalence of illness or symptoms among employees potentially exposed to chlorpyrifos from 1977 to 1985 compared with matched controls. The purpose of the current study was to update the original study to 1994, thereby increasing the statistical power.
