1-24123324- The reporter indicates a co-worker was exposed to an herbicide containing the active ingredient Paraquat. The reporter indicated a co-worker had been exposed to the diluted product (1:1 with water) via a spill on his abdomen. The exposure took place one week prior to the initial contact with the registrant. The spill was reported to be localized to the skin ¿¿¿mostly on his stomach?. The exposed party was reported to have left work shortly following the exposure. It is unclear what decontamination was done following the exposure. The exposed party was reported to have the product on is clothing, it is unknown if this clothing was promptly removed. The individual exposed did not go to the doctor immediately following the exposure. Two days after the exposure the party complained of skin burns described to be ¿¿¿like a sun burn?. He was reported to have gone to the emergency room and have been briefly hospitalized (duration not clarified). The hospitalization was reported to have been in a burn center where the patient received a skin transplantation or skin grafts for the treatment of ¿¿¿scrotal chemical burns?. No further information is available about the reported exposure. Chemical burns requiring skin grafts would be unexpected to occur following dermal exposure to diluted product.
