Abstract/Contents: | "Volatilization and dislodgeable foliar residues of turfgrass pesticides following application are major routes of exposure to golfers via inhalation and dermal penetration. Our past research has determined that pesticides with high vapor pressures and inherent high toxicities result in Inhalation Hazard Quotients IHQs greater than 1.0. From this determination, our research has progressed to examine methods of suppressing volatilization and dislodgeable residues in order to reduce potential golfer exposure. The adjuvant, Silwet L-77, was selected for its superior wetting, thatch penetrating, and volatilization suppressing properties (Policello et al., 1995). Three pesticides with relatively high vapor pressures were applied to small circular turfgrass plots with or without the adjuvant. Volatilization was measured with high volume air samplers and using the Theoretical Profile Shape (TPS) method. Dislodgeable resides samples were collected by wiping treated turf plots with dampened cheese cloth. The potential hazard associated with exposure to the volatile and dislodgeable residues was determined by IHQs and Dermal Hazard Quotient (DHQs) determination using the USEPA Hazard Quotient method (Murphy et al., 1996ab)." |
