Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Forest worker exposure to airborne herbicide residues in smoke from prescribed fires in the southern United States

Notes: Sumario: The study focused on recovery of herbicide active ingredients that might become airborne during the prescribed fire. It did not attempt to monitor or identify herbicide or biomass thermal decomposition products. Under these operational and diluted field conditions, most herbicide decomposition products would not be detectable or distinguishable from the array of similar decomposition products that originate from the burning of the dominant forest biomass fuels (leaves, needles, twigs)Related records: En: American Industrial Hygiene Association journal. - Akron, Ohio. - Vol. 53, nº 4, April 1992 ; p. 265-272Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Contaminantes químicos Contaminación atmosférica Herbicidas Explotación forestal Residuos Extinción de incendios Humos tóxicos Control de contaminantes Muestreos Otros autores: Bush, Parshall B.
