Resumen

The large biodiversity of Peru presents many opportunities and challenges regarding proper characterization of plant and animal toxins. In addition, there are naturally occurring sources of heavy metals that raise some concerns. Man-made activities such as illegal mining activities, lead in paint and combustibles commercialized until 2004, agricultural overuse of fertilizers and pesticides, urban particulate pollution from aging cars, and improperly disposed residues from urban waste, fisheries, and the metal-mechanic industry represent hotspots of concern regarding occupational and population-wide exposures. Most regulation is coordinated by the Ministry of Environment or the Ministry of Health. One undergraduate and one graduate degree in Toxicology is offered by Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos.
