The use of disinfectants in livestock farming (original) (raw)

2007

Abstract

In 1993 an evaluation system for non-agricultural pesticides was presented. This method was completely incorporated in the Uniform System for the Evaluation of Substances (USES). USES 1, the first version, can be used as a tool in making rapid risk assessments and setting priorities for new and existing substances, plant protection products and biocides within the scope of the Dutch Chemical Substances Act and the Dutch Pesticides Act. In 1996 a second national version of USES (USES 2) will be presented. This report describes models for the use of disinfectant in livestock farming in addition to the existing models for the evaluation of non-agricultural pesticides. The models, to be incorporated in USES, describe the following emission scenarios: disinfection of animal housing ; disinfection of footwear and animal paws ; disinfection of milk extraction systems ; disinfection of means of transport and disinfection of hatcheries.
