Exposure to Chlorination By-Products (CBPs) and Intra-Uterine Growth Retardation : Effect of New CBPs and Gene-Environment Interaction
FY 2009-10
Summary
About 500 cases of babies with growth retardation will be compared to about 1,500 normal babies for in utero exposure to new CBPs. Intensity of exposure through inhalation, dermal absorption and ingestion will be compared between the two groups. The relationship between chemical in-utero exposure from water and disease in newborns will be evaluated taking into consideration potential confounders as well as some possible gene susceptibility.
