Chronic Low-Dose Exposure to Insecticide Chlorpyrifos Reduces Lifespan in a Wild Fish by Accelerating Aging - Beyond Pesticides Daily News Blog A lake skygazer shows accelerated aging when exposed to chronic low doses of the insecticide chlorpyrifos, according to researchers. The study finds that chronic low-dose exposures result in the accumulation of sublethal effects over time, refuting the assumption that lower doses, even if chronic, pose no threat, which must be retired from regulatory policies.
