| Abstract |
Description, with comments, of animal experiments carried out to ascertain the toxic effects of inhaled zineb. The functional disturbances observed in various body systems as a result of breathing zineb concentrations of 200, 20 and even 5mg/m3 is shown in a table. Research was also carried out on the embryo of rats. In view of the gonadotoxic and embryotoxic effects of zineb, an atmospheric TLV of 0.5mg/m3 is recommended for this compound. |
