摘要：This study assesses the feasibility of a n enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the determination of atrazine in serum samples collected from twenty workers engaged in technical atrazine dust formulating and bagging processes . An assay was developed with the middle of the test (IC 50) at 0.08 ± 0.02 m g/L, a limit of detection of about 100 ng /L and the coefficients of variation up to 8 %. Serum atrazine levels were interpreted taking into account the airborne concentrations of atrazine in the workplace atmosphere . The immunoenzymatic method itself is convenient, inexpensive and easy to use . It was , therefore , concluded that serum sampling of atrazine exposure among worker populations is a feasible biomonitoring method .
