Description:

Results of this study indicate that dermal loadings of both tracers increase through the seventh brief contact. Dermal loading of Uvitex tends to increase at a higher rate than dermal loadings of riboflavin. Measurement of co-applied tracer and pesticide suggest results for these two tracers may provide reasonable bounding estimates of pesticide transfer.

Purpose/Objective:

Dermal loading of Uvitex tends to increase at a higher rate than dermal loadings of riboflavin.
