Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a crystalline organophosphate insecticide. It was introduced in 1965 by Dow Chemical Company and is known by many trade names (see table), including Dursban and Lorsban. It acts on the nervous system of insects by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase. Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate, with potential for both acute toxicity at larger amounts and neurological effects in fetuses and children even at very small amounts. For acute effects, the EPA classifies chlorpyrifos as Class II: moderately toxic. CPF is a strongly genotoxic agent that induces DNA damage and cell apoptosis.

Sample Use Guides
Male volunteers consumed doses up to 0.1 mg/kg/day for up to seven weeks. Significant plasma cholinesterase inhibition was observed, which ranged from 36-82% at the highest dose after nine days of treatment.
