| Abstract |
The dynamics of dichlorvos degradation in washings from both hands of greenhouse workers was studied. The preparation was a slowly disintegrating one, not suitable for application to greenhouses. A reduction in cholinesterase activity was seen in 25% of the subjects, on the 4th and 5th days after 5h exposure. The concentration which had no effect on cholinesterase activity was 3µg. The minimum delay for safe work with dichlorvos in greenhouses was established to be 6 days. |
