Hand tremor due to industrial exposure metallic mercury vapour was recorded in 26 exposed and 25 non-exposed male workers by an accelerometer attached the dorsum of hand. The subjects were instructed hold hand forearm same position first without then with a load 1250 g supported Analysis records showed that highest peak frequencies (HPF) (the frequency corresponding acceleration) higher men than controls related duration age. changes HPF between rest again second moment (M2) (an index taking...
Breath analysis has been proposed on numerous occasions for monitoring solvent exposure. Nevertheless, it is still rarely used routinely because of (1) difficulties in the methodology itself (sampling and analysis) (2) lack data concerning its relationship to exposure dose. The various methods available today are briefly reviewed, compared, discussed. Emphasis simultaneous use COz as a respiratory index. Two using this approach presented. advantages limitations breath occupational discussed...
Exposure to particles (PM) induces adverse health effects (cancer, cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases). A key-role in these seems be played by oxidative stress, which is an excess of reactive oxygen species relative the amount reducing (including antioxidants), first line defense against species. The aim this study was document stress caused exposure respirable vivo, test whether exposed workers presented changes their urinary levels for species.Bus depot (n = 32) pollutants (respirable...

Human volunteers were exposed in an experimental chamber to styrene (4 or 8 hours at 40 200 ppm) order obtain a quantitative relationship between exposure and urinary elimination of the metabolites mandelic phenylglyoxylic acids (MA PGA). For analysis PGA new GC-method was used, based on reductive transformation relatively instable into MA, which is stable enough for shipping handling until final processing. The post-exposure shows that spot urine sampled morning after analysed sum MA most...
This study describes an occupational health survey carried out in the polyester industry order to investigate hepatic effects caused by exposure styrene. Fifty-seven workers underwent a medical examination. They were submitted blood and urine sampling for determination of degree exposure, analysis urinary mandelic phenylglyoxylic acids (styrene metabolites), intensity induction and/or effects, glucaric acid plasma enzyme activities (gamma glutamyl transferase, ornithine carbamoyl alanine...
Objectives This study evaluates personal exposure to respirable inorganic and organic fibers during normal human lifetimes assesses the order of magnitude contribution other than asbestos total fiber from man-made natural sources. Methods Four groups (suburban schoolchildren, rural retired persons, office workers, taxi drivers), with five persons per group, were monitored over 24 h four times one year. Personal sampling pumps collected airborne dust on gold-precoated Nuclepore filters. The...

A fatal accident which occurred in a tank containing sludge made of wine and activated charcoal is described. Similar accidents the industry seem to have never been reported before. Initially, cause death was not obvious became clear only after autopsy confirmed presence very high concentration carbon dioxide blood. It shown this paper how could be estimated from its solubility water, assuming realistic content gas remaining sludge. Moreover analysed by fault tree method revealed that, as...
