**4. Conclusion**

It is noted, according to the study, that there are still several gaps to be studied regarding exposure to insecticides and other pesticides. Protective clothing tested according to international standards uses only one type of pesticide (pendimethalin or glyphosate), which do not emphasize the toxicity of the product in contact with the skin of the worker. The means of exposure to insecticides can occur without the use of clothing, but the exposure also occurs with the use of protective clothing. The loss of efficiency of clothing can be due to wear by insecticide applicators, washing, the use of soap at the time of washing, the presence of seams, and improperly made openings. Another exposure factor is the use of clothing by different types of pesticide formulations, which ensures wear. In addition, the factor discussed is the quality of the clothes that are put up for sale; even the certified clothing used in the application of insecticides does not present adequate exposure to the worker throughout the workday. There are differences in results between the tests carried out with the clothes in the laboratory and in the field, mainly due to wear factor by the use and contamination with other types of formulations that interact with the fabric or material of the dress. It is important to emphasize that many insecticides with high toxicity are still commercialized in the world, although many countries already prohibit their commercialization, as some organophosphates and organochlorines. This way, it is important to evaluate protective clothing with these types of pesticides.
