Environmental Monitoring of Occupational Exposure to Cyclophosphamide Drug in Two Iranian Hospitals
Background: Most cytotoxic drugs are unable to discriminate normal cells from cancer cells and they interfere with cell division and could lead to harmful effects such as carcinogenicity, genetic mutation, and teratogenicity. In order to assess dermal occupational exposure to cytotoxic drugs, surface sampling was used to determine the residual drugs on the working surfaces, as well as the effec...
متن کاملOccupational dermal exposure to cyclophosphamide in Dutch hospitals: a pilot study.
INTRODUCTION Several studies have shown that exposure to antineoplastic drugs can cause reproductive toxic effects as well as carcinogenic effects. Presence of these drugs in the urine of hospital personnel has been widely studied and some work has been done on exposure by inhalation. So far, assessment of dermal exposure to antineoplastic drugs has not been extensively studied. In this pilot s...
متن کاملBiological monitoring of occupational exposure to tetrahydrofuran.
Occupational exposure to tetrahydrofuran (THF) was studied by analysis of environmental air, blood, alveolar air, and urine from 58 workers in a video tape manufacturing plant. Head space gas chromatography (GC) with an FID detector was used for determination of THF concentration in alveolar air, urine, and blood. Environmental exposure to THF was measured by personal sampling with a carbon fel...

This study aimed to review the applicable risk assessment methods in occupational and environmental exposures to NPs. A literature search for articles published since 2005 in Web of Knowledge, Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar, using ap...
متن کاملIncidence of Potential Drug-Drug Interaction and Related Factors in Hospitalized Neurological Patients in two Iranian Teaching Hospitals
Background: Reciprocal drug interactions are among the most common causes of adverse drug reactions. We investigated the incidence and related risk factors associated with mutual drug interactions in relation to prescriptions written in the neurology wards of two major teaching hospitals in Shiraz, southern Iran. Methods: Data was collected from hand-written prescriptions on a daily basis. Mutu...
