متن کاملHuman exposure to urban air pollution.
This study deals with some methods of making human exposure estimates, aimed at describing the human exposure for selected air pollutants in Sweden that are suspected carcinogens. Nitrogen oxides (NOx) have been chosen as an indicator substance for estimating the concentration of the urban plume. Earlier investigations have shown that the traffic in Swedish cities contributes around 85% to the ...
متن کاملCharacterization of occupational exposure to air contaminants in modern tunnelling operations.
OBJECTIVES Personal air measurements of aerosols and gases among tunnel construction workers were performed as part of a 11-day follow-up study on the relationship between exposure to aerosols and gases and cardiovascular and respiratory effects. METHODS Ninety tunnel construction workers employed at 11 available construction sites participated in the exposure study. The workers were divided ...
متن کاملAcute effects of exposure to air contaminants in a sawmill on healthy volunteers.
OBJECTIVES To study whether air contaminants in sawmills can induce acute changes in the upper and lower airways of previously non-exposed subjects. METHODS Nineteen healthy volunteers were examined to find the concentration of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in nasal lavage fluid and lung function before and after five hour exposure to dusts and fumes generated in a sawmill where timber from Scots pine...
