In recent years the number of carbamate pesticides registered for use in New South Wales has increased. Some of the newer carbamates are very toxic and have cholinergic properties similar to those of the organic phosphates, though the effect is of much shorter duration. Because of this, separate tests for plasma and red blood cell levels of cholinesterase should be conducted as soon as possible after exposure in order to obtain meaningful results. A typical case of carbamate poisoning is described in which both plasma and red blood cell cholinesterase values were lowered. The substitution of a liquid pesticide formulation for the original powder formulation has reduced the operator inhalation hazard in the case of methomyl.
近年来，新南威尔士州登记使用的氨基甲酸酯类农药数量有所增加。一些新型氨基甲酸酯类农药毒性很强，具有与有机磷类似的胆碱能特性，不过其作用持续时间要短得多。因此，接触后应尽快分别检测血浆和红细胞中的胆碱酯酶水平，以便获得有意义的结果。本文描述了一例典型的氨基甲酸酯类农药中毒病例，其中血浆和红细胞胆碱酯酶值均降低。用液体农药制剂替代原来的粉剂制剂，降低了灭多威对操作人员的吸入危害。
