Toxicology is among the quickest relocating clinical fields. within the components of insecticide toxicology many new advances were made seeing that this treatise first seemed. as a result, it should no longer be effortless to write down even a assessment paper that will now not be superseded by the point it used to be released. In revising this quantity i've got made a unsleeping attempt to stick to the elemental ideas which were built through the years. whereas i've got retained the fundamental framework of the unique ebook, advances that essentially switch convinced options or upload a brand new horizon were selected for updating these fields the place acceptable. the most emphasis has been put on the addition of latest sections and new compounds constructed in view that 1975. because the first variation seemed, a number of books protecting technical info in every one crew were released. they're very good encyclopedic assets of their selected parts, and are indexed in each one part as prompt analyzing material.

Example text

The experiments for "no-effect" levels include some chronic toxicity tests, but they are different in that the most sensitive signs of intoxication and effects are adopted as the judging criteria, and the most sensitive animal species is selected. The rationale of such a design is the assumption that human susceptibilities to pesticidal chemicals are equivalent to those found in the most sensitive animal species. In addition to these three basic tests, there are a few nonacute tests which are pertinent to pesticide research.

Found the general ratio of parathion toxicity in man to be inhalation 10, oral 3, and Chapter 2 22 dermal 1. The level of inhalation toxicity can be expressed either as mg/m 3 (preferred for the static tests) or as parts per million (ppm). In limited cases, the actual amount of pesticide taken in through inhalation can be estimated and exposure levels in terms of mg/kgjhr can be substituted for the other criteria for expressing inhalation toxicity. Recommended threshold limit values for various pesticides in the breathing air are summarized in Table 2-1.

Intravenous injection is the most direct method of application. It is generally agreed that the route that carries the actual toxicant most rapidly to the bloodstream is the one that causes the greatest toxic action on the animal. However, stringent precautionary measures must be taken with regard to injection. The vehicles used are emulsions containing 15-20 % of either vegetable oil or polyethylene glycol 300, or both, and an emulsifying agent and water, preferably isotonic saline. 5 ml for rodents, and the speed of injection must be slow.
