Health complaints should be taken seriously. The results indicate that when small doses of each of the distillates are introduced into the trachea, they produce a marked change in the surface properties of the lining of the lung and that this is dependent on the dose. Small quantities of petroleum product used as carriers for insecticides have few or no harmful effects, but large quantities and prolonged exposure can induce severe reactions. 26 0 obj

If this liquid is swallowed, aspiration into the lungs may result in chemical pneumonitis. diesel exhaust particles (DEP) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) have been shown to cause both malignant and non-malignant respiratory diseases. Various psychological health problems have arisen in those living in the surrounding areas. There is overlap with reviews published previously (20, 66, 71, 85, 91, 107) because most studies of the toxicity oil to birds were done before 1984. Inhalation risk Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed. <]>>
