Title Acute inflammation of rat mucous membranes evoked by eye-instillation and inhalation of pesticide formulations containing propachlor and TMTD
Original title Akut nyálkahártya-gyulladas patkányokon propaklór- és TMTD-tartalmú növényvédőszerek szembe juttatása és belélegeztetése után [in Hungarian]
Bibliographic information 1978, Vol.22, No.4, p.393-397. Illus. 17 ref.
Abstract The inflammatory activity of Satecid 65 WP (65% propachlor) and Pol-Thiuram (85% tetramethylthiuram disulfide) was determined by the Evans Blue diffusion technique. Both pesticides were effctive in the eye as 0.01% aqueous suspension. Tracheal inflammation was detected after 4h inhalation. The effective threshold concentrations for Satecid 65 WP were 136-456mg/m3 and for Pol-Thiuram <160mg/m3. Acute LC50 values were >3,580mg/m3 and >2,630mg/m3, respectively. The inert ingredients of Satecid 65 WP were ineffective in both target tissues.
