Download or read book A Review of Sodium Monofluoroacetate compound 1080 written by Stephen P. Atzert and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Second World War sodium monofluoroacetate, or sodium fluoroacetate (Compound 1080), has been the subject of wide research in the United States and elsewhere. Based on this research, it has been approved for animal damage control work by several nations. In the United States sodium monofluoroacetate has been a tool used by the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife to control coyote and rodent damage, as well as a tool used by private pest control operators to control commensal rodents. Despite 25 years of worldwide research and practical experience, the use of Compound 1080 is still embroiled in controversy. The purpose of this monograph is to summarize current information on sodium monofluoroacetate, to review use patterns, and to provide a base for further studies.

Toxicological Concepts section provides information on toxicologic principles such as history taking, providing supportive care, and managing emergency treatment. General Exposures section addresses nontraditional toxicology such as indoor environmental air, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and toxicities in pregnant and lactating animals. Miscellaneous Toxicant Groups section covers commonly encountered specific toxicants, the proper use of diagnostic laboratories, use of human poison control centers, and antidotes for specific toxins. More than 50 international contributors provide up-to-date, authoritative advice on treating poisonings and intoxications. 8 NEW chapters cover topics including legal considerations in toxicology cases, responding to mass exposures, and poisonings in birds, small mammals, and geriatric patients.

Book Anticoagulant Rodenticides and Wildlife

Download or read book Anticoagulant Rodenticides and Wildlife written by Nico W. van den Brink and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commensal rodents pose health risks and cause substantial damage to property and food supplies.
