Product Information
Evaluates the design and findings of over 250 studies concerned with the effects on human health and the environment posed by permethrin, a photostable synthetic pyrethroid insecticide marketed since 1977. The most extensive section reviews the findings of experimental studies conducted to assess toxicity. Particular attention is given to differences in study design, dose and mode of administration that can affect the validity of findings when extrapolated to humans. The final section draws upon a limited number of occupational and clinical studies to evaluate direct evidence of adverse effects on health.Product Identifiers
