Contribution of aerosols generated during mixing and loading of pesticides to operator inhalation exposure

The occupational exposure resulting from the application of crop protection agents continues to be of great interest for the purposes of identifying hazards or determining safer chemical handling methods. The purpose of the present study was to identify the potential respiratory exposure of a mixer/...

Zusammenfassung:	The occupational exposure resulting from the application of crop protection agents continues to be of great interest for the purposes of identifying hazards or determining safer chemical handling methods. The purpose of the present study was to identify the potential respiratory exposure of a mixer/loader to chlorothalonil, with the mixing and loading operation as the only source of aerosols (particles
