Abstract

Objectives: Herbicides are among the most widely used pesticide compounds for plant growth control worldwide. Risk assessment of the dinitroaniline-derived herbicides pendimethalin and trifluralin is important for foodborne or other means of exposure. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the methylation and acetylation profiles of pendimethalin and trifluralin, which we have high levels of exposure to in various ways. Furthermore, we also determined the protective effect of resveratrol, an antioxidant compound, against the possible toxic effects of these pesticides.
