Scope note: Phosphoric acid esters that have less toxicity compared to organochlorines, however, can be absorbed by the human body through all possible routes (respiratory, gastrointestinal, dermal, through mucous membranes). They are acutely toxic (their effects appear quickly in the body), are insoluble in water and are non-accumulative. (Adapted from https://bit.ly/3j2AvMZ)
