TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - Carbofuran poisoning of pregnant woman and fetus per ingestion JO - Journal of forensic sciences A1 - Kłys, M A1 - Kosuń, J. A1 - Pach, J. A1 - Kamenczak, A. SP - 1413 EP - 1416 VL - 34 IS - 6 N2 - A case of carbamate pesticide poisoning of a pregnant woman by carbofuran ingestion is presented. The mother recovered from the poisoning in the hospital but necrosis of the fetus was found. Toxicological findings of the liver, brain, and kidney of the fetus revealed carbofuran in concentrations comparable with the mother's blood. Our findings in the case contribute to the research on permeation of the placental barrier by chemical substances.
