Agricultural workers exposed to chlordimeform (Cdf) used as a pesticide on cotton in Imperial County, California, were monitored during the 1982 application season. Cdf metabolites were found in the urine of 132 workers and were positively correlated with the length of exposure and nature of job activity. Persons mixing and loading and engaged in miscellaneous tasks such as cleaning and maintenance of equipment had the greatest exposure. There was no evidence of urinary tract irritation by microscopic analysis of the urine, nor were significant differences found between preseason and postseason serum chemistry results. Despite the use of protective clothing and closed system transfer devices, Cdf was absorbed by workers as evidenced by urinary metabolite excretion.
1982年施药季节期间，对加利福尼亚州帝国县在棉花上使用杀虫脒（Cdf）作为杀虫剂的农业工人进行了监测。在132名工人的尿液中发现了Cdf代谢物，并且与接触时长和工作活动性质呈正相关。进行混合和装载以及从事诸如设备清洁和维护等杂项任务的人员接触程度最高。通过尿液显微镜分析没有发现尿路刺激的证据，季前和季后血清化学结果之间也没有发现显著差异。尽管使用了防护服和密闭系统转移装置，但从尿中代谢物排泄情况来看，工人还是吸收了Cdf。
