| Abstract |
Following a classification of pesticides and herbicides into danger classes, and after reviewing the various toxic effects (including allergic reactions), the author briefly deals with herbicides (sodium, chlorate, DNOC, etc.), insecticides (pyridine derivatives, nitro compounds, nicotine preparations, chlorinated hydrocarbons, organo-phosphorous compounds) and fungicides (organo-mercury compounds). He sets out rules for the preparation of spray liquids and for their applications, and gives advice on the use of personal protective equipment, personal hygiene and good housekeeping. Other subjects dealt with are the storage of toxic substances, first aid in the case of poisoning, and the protection of the environment when applying pesticides and herbicides. |
