Applicator exposure to maleic hydrazide (MH) in flue-cured tobacco

MH (1,2-dihydro-3,6-pyridazinedione) is the active ingredient of the systemic sucker control products available for use on tobacco in the United States. In the field, two groups of workers, the applicators and harvesters, are exposed to MH. The degree of this exposure is unknown. This study was cond...

Zusammenfassung:	MH (1,2-dihydro-3,6-pyridazinedione) is the active ingredient of the systemic sucker control products available for use on tobacco in the United States. In the field, two groups of workers, the applicators and harvesters, are exposed to MH. The degree of this exposure is unknown. This study was conducted to generate data on the exposure of applicators to MH through inhalation and dermal contact during application of MH to flue-cured tobacco.
