According to the Report on Carcinogens, formaldehyde ranks 25th in overall U.S. chemical production, with more than 5 million tons produced each year. Given its economic importance and widespread use, many people are exposed environmentally and/or occupationally. Presently, International Agency for Research Cancer classifies as carcinogenic humans (Group 1), based sufficient evidence experimental animals. Manyfold vitro studies clearly indicated that can induce genotoxic effects...
Visual anomalies that affect school-age children represent an important public health problem. Data on the prevalence are lacking in Portugal but is needed for planning vision services. This study was conducted to determine of strabismus, decreased visual acuity, and uncorrected refractive error Portuguese aged 6 11 years.A cross-sectional carried out a sample 672 (7.69±1.19 years). Children received orthoptic assessment (visual ocular alignment, movements) non-cycloplegic...
Formaldehyde was the first air pollutant, which already in 1970s emerged as a specifically non-industrial indoor quality problem.Yet formaldehyde remained an issue and level residential is among highest of any contaminant.Formaldehyde concentrations 4 different settings (schools, office buildings, new dwellings occupied dwellings) Portugal were measured using Photo Ionization Detection (PID) equipment (11,7 eV lamps).All presented results higher than reference value proposed by Portuguese...
Os citostáticos são genotóxicos e não completamente seletivos para as células neoplásicas, podendo afetar o genoma das normais. Está comprovada a sua genotoxicidade em modelos experimentais doentes tratados com quimioterapia. profissionais de saúde responsáveis pela preparação administração apresentam risco sofrer efeitos adversos saúde, tendo sido comprovado por diversos estudos haver contaminação generalizada do ambiente superfícies trabalho. procedimentos segurança equipamentos proteção...
Formaldehyde (FA) ranks 25th in the overall U.S. chemical production, with more than 5 million tons produced each year. Given its economic importance and widespread use, many people are exposed to FA occupationally. Recently, based on correlation nasopharyngeal cancer humans, International Agency for Research Cancer (IARC) confirmed classification of as a Group I substance. Considering epidemiological evidence potential association leukemia, IARC has concluded that can cause this...
Exposure assessment is an important step of risk process and has evolved more quickly than perhaps any aspect the four-step paradigm (hazard identification, exposure assessment, dose-response analysis, characterization).Nevertheless, some epidemiological studies have associated adverse health effects to a chemical with inadequate or absent quantification.In addition metric used, truly representation by measurements depends on: strategy sampling, random collection measurements, similarity...
RESUMO: O formaldeido (FA) foi classificado, em 2004, pela International Agency for Cancer Research como agente cancerigeno. Este quimico ocupa a 25a posicao toda producao quimica dos Estados Unidos da America, com mais de 5 milhoes toneladas produzidas por ano. Devido sua importância economica e uso diversificado, mui tos individuos estao expostos profissionalmente FA. Com o estudo desenvolvido preten deu-se avaliar exposicao FA dois contextos ocupacionais distintos – na resinas...
Introduction – The widespread use of formaldehyde is mainly due to its high reactivity, lack colour, purity in a commercial format, and also low cost. These characteristics put it among the 25 most abundant chemicals produced world. IARC, since 2006, classify Group 1 (carcinogen) based on evidence that exposure can cause nasopharyngeal cancer humans. It was developed an exploratory study with purpose obtaining information about occupational reality Portugal. Methodology Several...
