Exposure to triaryl phosphates: metabolism and biomarkers of exposure.
The leakage of tricresyl phosphate-containing engine lubricants into aircraft cabin air, either from worn or defective engine seals or under normal operating conditions, is a serious concern for both the health and safety of the cabin occupants, since the oil contains one to five percent tricresyl phosphate (TCP) esters, known neurotoxins. The exposure of pilots is a particular concern since th...
متن کاملExposure and Biomarkers
Since Swedish scientists discovered the presence of acrylamide in foods produced for human consumption in April 2002, considerable progress has been made toward determining acrylamide levels in various foods and food groups. Progress has also been made in establishing biomarkers of acrylamide exposure, although no biomarker is currently able to determine the source of the exposure (e.g. food ve...
متن کاملCharacterisation of human exposure pathways to perfluorinated compounds--comparing exposure estimates with biomarkers of exposure.
Commercially used per- and polyfluorinated compounds (PFCs) have been widely detected in humans, but the sources of human exposure are not fully characterized. The objectives of this study were to assess the relative importance of different exposure pathways of PFCs in a group of Norwegians and compare estimated intakes with internal doses obtained through biomonitoring. Individual PFC intakes ...
متن کاملNl 1- Biomarkers of Exposure to Fluoride
Biological markers or biomarkers are defined as indicators that signal events in biological systems (human body) or samples. A biomarker is not used as diagnosis test, but as an indicator of a disease or biological alteration. The biomarkers are classified in three types: 1) exposure; 2) susceptibility and 3) biomarkers of effect. For biomarkers of fluoride the examples would be respectively: 1...
متن کاملBiomarkers of human exposure to pesticides.
For centuries, several hundred pesticides have been used to control insects. These pesticides differ greatly in their mode of action, uptake by the body, metabolism, elimination from the body, and toxicity to humans. Potential exposure from the environment can be estimated by environmental monitoring. Actual exposure (uptake) is measured by the biological monitoring of human tissues and body fl...
