ABSTRACTPesticides poisoning can affect the activity of cholinesterase enzyme that breaks down acetylcholinecompound that plays role in transmitting signal or stimulus into muscle nerve cells adjacent to each other thatstimuli can stop.Factors which allow the poisoning is the absence of PPE when working and unstandardized dosage ofpesticides usage. Poisoning can occur through skin contact, inhalation or oral. The purpose of this study is todetermine blood cholinesterase enzyme working activities on rice farmer in Kepuh Anyar, Mojokerto 2016. Thisstudy is a descriptive study with cross sectional approach.
