The article presents that the insecticide, an organophosphate is used as a contact insecticide, acting as a cholinesterase inhibitor. It is effective against a wide range of insect pests of many crops. The insecticide is made from 2,2,2,2-tetrachloroacetophenone (TCAP) and triethyl phosphate. TCAP is made from dichloroacetophenone and chlorine. Patch tests were performed with the European standard series, the insecticide. Strong positive reactions were seen to both tests with TCAP. Tests to the other chemicals were negative. Sensitization to TCAP in humans has reported such as rashes developed on the patient's face as a result of walking through the insecticide plant. |
