In an age when pesticides and other toxins may be found on objects, art works, herbaria specimens, animal mounts, wall papers, and books, this collection is a welcome practical guide to identifying, testing for, and dealing with contamination on a range of items archived in museum collections.
This book provides updated information for thoughtful testing, analysis, and safe handling of artifacts. Special features include revised worksheets for performing basic tests, updated charts of scientific and historical information on known pesticides, data resources, and illustrations. A new section on pesticide mitigation and removal techniques is also offered. The guide is essential for people involved with the management of collections.
