Errr, you mean "study whether" not "confirm/publish", since that would be assuming the conclusion.

There are, in fact, pesticides that have no effect on humans.

(and in fact, sadly, some of the things people think are "natural alternatives" are much worse for humans, like copper sulfate)

“pesticides” covers a broad range of substances.

Which do you mean?
