Comparative hygienic assessment of working conditions and potential risks for workers' health when applying pesticides in different technics

In the structure of regional and planetary pollutants, pesticides are in the top ten, and among food contaminants along with heavy metals – they occupy first place in the world. It is known that pesticides and agrochemicals, which belong to the group of biologically active compounds, are one of the...
