Título Acute intoxication due to exposure to maneb and zineb. A case with behavioral and central nervous system changes
Información bibliográfica 1 Feb. 1983, Vol.9, No.1, p.47-51. Illus. 16 ref.
Resumen A case is reported of a 42-year-old man who sprayed a cucumber plantation with a mixture of maneb and zineb by tractor twice within a week. Behavioural changes appeared after the first application, and loss of consciousness, convulsions, and right hemiparesis with diffuse slow rhythm in the EEG occurred following admission to hospital after the second, 10 times more concentrated exposure. The behavioural and central nervous symptoms disappeared spontaneously after a few days. The EEG was normal 2 weeks later.
