Which of the following is not a route of pesticide exposure?

The correct answer is the route of exposure that is not commonly associated with pesticide exposure, which is intravenous. Pesticides are typically managed through routes that are relevant to their application and environmental interactions.

Oral exposure occurs when pesticides are ingested, either through contaminated food, water, or hand-to-mouth transfer, making it a significant route of exposure for both humans and animals. Ocular exposure refers to pesticides coming into contact with the eyes, which can happen through splashes or vapors. Dermal exposure involves contact with the skin, which is a primary route for many pesticides, especially for agricultural workers or individuals applying them.

Intravenous exposure, on the other hand, is associated with direct injection into the bloodstream and does not occur through the typical interactions with pesticides. Pesticides are not administered through intravenous means and, as such, this route is not considered relevant for their exposure assessment.
