In this episode Mark Reggers is joined by guest Terry Gorman, 3M's Occupational Hygienist for the Personal Safety Division in Australia and New Zealand to discuss methyl bromide.
Methyl bromide is a colourless non-flammable gas which is heavier than air and odourless at low concentrations. It is widely used as a fumigant and pesticide to prevent unwanted pests such as insects and rodents in shipping containers. Methyl bromide is a very toxic fumigant gas that can be absorbed through inhalation and the skin.
