Download or read book Human Toxicology of Pesticides written by Fina P. Kaloyanova and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1991, this book conducts a systematic analysis of existing information regarding the toxicological effects of pesticides on humans. The book identifies the negative health effects related to exposure to pesticides and the biological changes required to undertake biological monitoring. The book also discusses the importance and magnitude of the problem for different kinds of pesticide applications in different parts of the world, explains the toxicodynamics and clinical picture of acute and chronic intoxications resulting from exposure to different groups of pesticides and selected individual substances, and evaluates existing methods and limitations for assessing human exposure to pesticides. Pesticide manufacturers, occupational health professionals, epidemiologists, environmentalists, government agencies and others concerned with the effects of pesticides on human populations should consider this book essential reading.
Download or read book The Evaluation of Toxicological Data for the Protection of Public Health written by W. J. Hunter and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-07-29 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Evaluation of Toxicological Data for the Protection of Public Health: Proceedings of the International Colloquium, Luxembourg, December 1976 focuses on the review of toxicological tests and methods used in toxicological evaluation of chemicals and reconsideration of these procedures in identifying decision-making processes involved in the protection of public health. The selection first discusses reviews of toxicological tests, including introductory remarks and comments on acute toxicity; problems associated with the testing of environmental mutagens; and the testing of carcinogenic potentials. The publication also examines the uncertainties related to the evaluation of the health hazards of environmental chemicals from toxicological data and epidemiological monitoring of indices of chemical hazards. The book takes a look at safety factors and their application in toxicological evaluation; ecotoxicological approaches for the protection of environment and health; and use of biological materials as environmental pollution gauges. The text also discusses acute toxicity, teratogenic effects of pollutants, and examples of ecotoxicological research. The selection is a dependable source of data for readers interested in the evaluation of toxicological data relative to the protection of public health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’écotoxicochimie, est une nouvelle branche de l’écologie qui se propose d’aborder les atteintes néfastes des produits chimiques sur l’environnement et la santé, à partir des données récentes de la chimie et de la biologie, en s’appuyant sur la toxicochimie, discipline d’interface élaborée en 1979. Les hydrocarbures, famille de base des composés organiques, ont été sélectionnés comme première approche dans Écotoxicochimie – Applications aux hydrocarbures. Ces produits chimiques sont à l’origine de la carbochimie et de la pétrochimie et leur prise en compte a permis de jeter les bases d’une prévention des risques aussi bien toxicochimiques qu’écotoxicochimiques. Risques liés en particulier à toutes les pollutions hydrocarbonées qui devraient être beaucoup mieux encadrées, tant en milieu domestique que dans les milieux de travail ou dans l’environnement. Ainsi ces hydrocarbures sont impliqués dans des pollutions maritimes retentissantes, qui restent malheureusement toujours d’actualité. Si les pollutions engendrées par l’exploitation maritime du pétrole sont également très inquiétantes, un autre sujet apparaît de plus en plus préoccupant avec l’extraction du gaz et des huiles de schiste, dont la technique mise en œuvre faisant appel à la fracturation hydraulique horizontale, est constituée d’un véritable cocktail chimique à faire frémir bien des toxicologues avertis… Sans précédent dans la littérature scientifique, toutes les propriétés toxiques des composés les plus utilisés sont présentées clairement dans cet ouvrage, à partir des références bibliographiques les plus actualisées. En tant que chimistes, spécialistes en toxicochimie, soucieux de comprendre pourquoi certains produits chimiques peuvent être dangereux pour la santé et l’environnement, les auteurs André Picot et Frédéric Montandon associés à plusieurs autres spécialistes, présentent, à la fin de l’ouvrage, une approche préventive, basée sur la sélection de produits de substitution notamment pour les solvants organiques. Trente-quatre fiches résumées dites de ToxicoÉcotoxicoChimie (FRTEC) devraient permettre de faire le bon choix parmi les principaux hydrocarbures couramment utilisés, en particulier comme solvants, et ceci dans de multiples disciplines. Par son approche novatrice, cet ouvrage sera indispensable aux professionnels des industries, des PMI et PME de tous les domaines traitant ou utilisant les hydrocarbures ou leurs dérivés, mais aussi aux responsables de santé publique ou des milieux de travail, aux organisations gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, et aux écologistes de tous horizons… sans oublier les enseignants et étudiants en chimie, en biologie et en écologie désireux de mieux comprendre pourquoi la chimie est à la base de la vie, qu’il nous faut protéger au mieux.
