  • potential dermal exposure to deltamethrin and risk assessment for manual sprayers influence of crop type
    Science of The Total Environment, 2008
    Co-Authors: Enrique A Hughes, Andrea P Flores, Laura Ramos, Anita Zalts, Richard C Glass, Javier M Montserrat
    Abstract:

    Abstract A comparison of the Potential Dermal Exposure (PDE) of workers to the insecticide deltamethrin was made as a function of crop type, in small Agricultural production units in Argentina. Seven experiments were done with two different crops (maize and broccoli, treated area between 600 and 1000 m 2 ) with three different operators under typical field conditions using a lever operated knapsack. The methodology is based on the whole body dosimetry technique, presenting separately the data for mixing/loading and application activities. These results indicate a higher concentration of pesticide in lower body sections for broccoli and a wider distribution for maize. The risk inherent in these Agricultural Procedures is estimated through Margin of Safety (MOS) values and was found to be generally safe. Preliminary results of a mass balance distribution of the pesticide between crop, soil and operator are also presented.

  • analytical method for assessing potential dermal exposure to captan using whole body dosimetry in small vegetable production units in argentina
    Pest Management Science, 2006
    Co-Authors: Enrique A Hughes, Andrea P Flores, Anita Zalts, Javier Ojeda, Richard Glass, Javier M Montserrat
    Abstract:

    An analytical method has been developed that can be used to determine the potential dermal exposure (PDE) of workers to the pesticide captan in small-scale horticultural production units. The methodology is based on the whole body dosimetry technique, using a cotton coverall and cotton gloves as sampling media, with protective clothing worn beneath the cotton media to protect the operator. The quantitative determination of captan was done by gas chromatography-electron capture detector (GC-ECD), with the analytical method validated by measuring limits of detection and quantification, linear ranges, sample recovery and precision. Special emphasis is placed on factors that affected the stability of captan during chromatographic determination. The data generated for potential dermal exposure are presented separately for mixing/loading and application activities. These data are compared with values obtained with visible tracers using a similar field technique. Margin of safety (MOS) values are also calculated for the Agricultural Procedures studied.
