Occupational exposure to diesel exhaust fumes.
There is currently no OEL for diesel fumes in the UK. This study reports parallel measurements of airborne levels of diesel fume pollutants in nine distribution depots where diesel powered fork-lift trucks (FLTs) were in use. Correlations between individual pollutants are assessed as well as their spatial distribution. Samples were collected on board FLTs and at background positions at nine dis...
متن کاملDiesel Exhaust Exposure, Wheezing and Sneezing
The rising incidence of allergic disorders in developed countries is unexplained. Exposure to traffic related air pollutants may be an important cause of wheezing and asthma in childhood. Experimental evidence from human studies suggests that diesel exhaust particles, constituents of fine particulate matter less than 2.5 microns (PM(2.5)), may act to enhance IgE mediated aeroallergen sensitizat...
متن کاملInfluence of Alternative Exposure Estimates in the Diesel Exhaust Miners Study: Diesel Exhaust and Lung Cancer.
The landmark Diesel Exhaust in Miners Study (DEMS) studied the relationship between diesel exhaust exposure (DEE) and lung cancer mortality of workers at eight nonmetal mines who were followed from beginning of dieselization of the mines (1947-1967) through December 31, 1997. The original analyses quantified DEE exposures using exposure to respirable elemental carbon (REC) to represent DEE, and...
متن کاملEffects of diesel exhaust particle exposure on a murine model of asthma due to soybean
BACKGROUND Exposure to soybean allergens has been linked to asthma outbreaks. Exposure to diesel exhaust particles (DEP) has been associated with an increase in the risk of asthma and asthma exacerbation; however, in both cases the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood, as does the possible interaction between the two entities. OBJECTIVE To investigate how the combination of soybean ...
متن کاملGenomewide DNA methylation dynamics upon diesel exhaust exposure in asthmatics
Background Particulate air pollution can induce epigenetic changes and regulate gene expression relevant to the pathophysiology of asthma and allergic diseases. Recently, epidemiologic data suggests that there are observable acute effects of air pollution on peripheral blood DNA methylation levels of genomewide Alu and LINE-1 repeat elements, as well as certain genes involved in oxidative stres...
