Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Assessment of dermal and inhalation exposure to ziner/maneb in the cultivation of flower bulbs

Notes: Sumario: In bulb farming the use of pesticides for crop protection and bulb disifection is extensive. To estimate long-term occupational exposure to pesticides,generic levels of exposure specific to the method of working were needed. In order to derive these values dermal and inhalation exposure to the fungicide mixture zineb/maneb was assessed for different methods of mixing and loading a wettable powder formulation. Further, dermal exposure was also assessed for two methods of desinfection bulbs. Moreover, the relative importance of dermal and inhalation exposure routes was estimatedRelated records: En: The Annals of occupational hygiene. - Oxford [etc.]. - nº 4, August 1992 ; p. 373-384Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Medicina laboral Enfermedades profesionales Enfermedades pulmonares Vías respiratorias Dermatología Contaminantes químicos Desinfectantes Pesticidas Agricultura Toxicidad Otros autores: Brouwer, E.J.
