A chemical ranking and scoring method entitled PestScreen has been developed as a screening tool to provide a relative assessment of pesticide hazards to human health and the environment. The method was developed to serve as an analytical tool in screening and identification of pesticides of environmental concern used in agriculture. PestScreen incorporates both the toxic effects of pesticides and their fate and exposure characteristics in different compartments of the environment. This is done by combining measures of chemical toxicity pertaining to both human health and the environment with chemical release amounts and information on overall environmental persistence, long-range transport potential and human population intake fractions. Each hazard measure is scored and weighted and finally combined with the pesticide application dose to provide a single final indicator of relative concern (PestScore). Results for 217 pesticides are presented and the practical implementation is illustrated on behalf of three practical case studies.
一种名为“害虫筛选”（PestScreen）的化学排名和评分方法已被开发出来，作为一种筛选工具，用于对农药对人类健康和环境的危害进行相对评估。该方法旨在作为一种分析工具，用于筛选和识别农业中使用的具有环境问题的农药。“害虫筛选”方法综合了农药的毒性效应及其在环境不同部分的归宿和暴露特征。这是通过将与人类健康和环境相关的化学毒性测量值与化学释放量以及关于整体环境持久性、远距离传输潜力和人类人口摄入量分数的信息相结合来实现的。对每个危害指标进行评分和加权，最后与农药施用量相结合，以提供一个相对关注度的单一最终指标（害虫得分）。文中给出了217种农药的结果，并通过三个实际案例研究说明了该方法的实际应用。
