Urinary biomarkers of exposure to jet fuel (JP-8).
Benzene, naphthalene, and 1- and 2-naphthol were measured in urine samples obtained from 322 U.S. Air Force personnel categorized a priori as likely to have low, moderate, or high exposure to jet fuel [jet propulsion fuel-8 (JP-8)]. In postexposure samples, levels of these analytes in the high-exposure group were 3- to 29-fold greater than in the low-exposure group and 2- to 12-fold greater tha...
متن کاملDermal absorption and distribution of topically dosed jet fuels jet-A, JP-8, and JP-8(100).
Dermal exposure to jet fuels has received increased attention with the recent release of newer fuels with novel performance additives. The purpose of these studies was to assess the percutaneous absorption and cutaneous disposition of topically applied (25 microl/5 cm(2)) neat Jet-A, JP-8, and JP-8(100) jet fuels by monitoring the absorptive flux of the marker components 14C naphthalene and (3)...
متن کاملPersonal exposure to JP-8 jet fuel vapors and exhaust at air force bases.
JP-8 jet fuel (similar to commercial/international jet A-1 fuel) is the standard military fuel for all types of vehicles, including the U.S. Air Force aircraft inventory. As such, JP-8 presents the most common chemical exposure in the Air Force, particularly for flight and ground crew personnel during preflight operations and for maintenance personnel performing routine tasks. Personal exposure...
متن کاملJP-8 jet fuel exposure and divided attention test performance in 1991 Gulf War veterans.
INTRODUCTION Previous research indicates that a large cohort of veterans from the 1991 Gulf War report polysymptomatic conditions. These syndromes often involve neurocognitive complaints, fatigue, and musculoskeletal symptoms, thus overlapping with civilian illnesses from low levels of environmental chemicals, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia. METHODS To test for time-dependent chan...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Jet Fuel (jp-8) in the Presence of Vegetation
The environmental impact of spills of JP-8, a kerosene-based jet fuel, has been studied very little. For the more volatile JP-4, earlier studies showed that biodegradation was less important than evaporation but for JP-8, evaporative loss from soil is very slow. Disappearance of JP-8 from watered mesocosms was monitored over several months. In two, 10-cm wide x 35-cm deep x 180-cm long channels...
