Description - Pesticides and Neurological Diseases by Donald J. Ecobichon
This edition of "Pesticides and Neurological Diseases" reviews current literature describing the effects of insecticides (chlorinated hydrocarbons, organophosphorus and carbamate esters, and the pyethroid esters), fungicides (organomercurials, dithiocarbamates), and herbicides (chlorophenoxy acids and esters) on the mammalian nervous systems. Acute and chronic exposures have resulted in both subtle and serious neurological deficits in the peripheral and central nervous systems, marked by transient effects preceding those of delayed onset and of persistent duration. The chapters have been largely revised and rewritten to introduce newer theories of mechamism(s) of action studied at the laboratory bench. Findings and observations on human intoxications are included as well.
