EQM研究公司，对便携式测试包进行了评价，将其作为监测移徙工人及其子女血液胆碱酯酶水平的工具。实验室验证证明了参考Ellman和试剂盒方法之间的线性关系（Ellman = 0.95 x试剂盒结果+0.82，r2 = 0.98）。季节前和季节后的胆碱酯酶水平在70名农场工人测量在正常范围内，但显着不同，分别为28.5和29.7 U/g血红蛋白（配对t检验，p = 0.014）。从98个农民工子女和53个年龄匹配的非农业儿童的对照组的结果表明，胆碱酯酶水平之间的农业和非农业儿童（ANOVA，p = 0.69）没有显着差异。这些数据表明，便携式测试工具包可以提供有用的数据农药接触时，在温度控制设置进行测量。
The EQM Research, Inc., portable test kit was evaluated as a surveillance tool for blood cholinesterase levels among migrant workers and their children. Laboratory validation demonstrated a linear relationship between the reference Ellman and kit methods (Ellman = 0.95 x kit result + 0.82, r2 = 0.98). Pre- and post-season cholinesterase levels measured in 70 farm workers were within normal ranges, but significantly different at 28.5 and 29.7 U/g Hb, respectively (paired t-test, p = 0.014). Results from 98 migrant farm worker children and a comparison group of 53 age-matched non-agricultural children showed that cholinesterase levels were not significantly different between the agricultural and non-agricultural children (ANOVA, p = 0.69). These data demonstrate that a portable test kit can provide useful data pesticide exposures when measurements are made in a temperature-controlled setting.
