Resumo: DDT is a persistent insecticide that was widely used in the world from the 1940s until the 70s, when it was banned in the United States and other countries. Most of its toxic effects are not observed in the acute forms, but particularly after chronic exposure. These long-term issues include reproductive effects, varying according to the time of life in which the individuals were exposed. The aims of the current study were to review the principal toxicological effects of DDT on reproduction, stratifying by physiological periods of exposure, and based on the magnitude of these effects, to discuss the cost-benefit relationship of reintroducing DDT with the specifically defined vector control criteria.

A maioria dos efeitos de sua toxicidade não é observável em formas agudas, mas especialmente após exposições crônicas. Dentre estes aspectos em longo prazo estão os efeitos reprodutivos, que variam de acordo com o a época da vida em que as pessoas foram expostas. Os objetivos deste estudo são: revisar os principais efeitos toxicológicos do DDT na reprodução, estratificando de acordo com os períodos fisiológicos de exposição; e a partir da magnitude destes efeitos discutir o custo-benefício da volta da utilização do DDT com critérios definidos de eliminação de vetores da malária.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2007-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3112Reports in Public Health; Vol. 23 No. 12 (2007): DecemberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 23 n. 12 (2007): Dezembro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3112/6282https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3112/6283Guimarães, Raphael MendonçaAsmus, Carmen Ildes Rodrigues FróesMeyer, Armandoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:26Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/3112Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:03:37.344250Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
