Saito, K. (1973). British Journal of Industrial Medicine, 30, 352-358. Electroencephalographic studies on petrol intoxication: comparison between nonleaded and leaded white petrol. The effect of nonleaded and leaded petrol on the brains of rats was studied electroencephalographically. Bipolar electrodes were implanted on the brain surface between the frontal and occipital lobes of the left hemi...

background: the incomplete burning of fuel in engine of vehicles, evaporation of petrol from gas stations, and also car carburetor cause unburned hydrocarbons to be emitted in ambient air of cities and gas station locations. from unburned hydrocarbons; monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon influence to citizen's health and benzene is known as carcinogenic compounds. the objectives of this study are t...

In this experiment the effects of lead and lead-free petrol applied at the following doses of: 0, 2, 4 and 6 cm • kg' of soil on growth and development of triticale and biochemical properties of the soil were studied. For detoxication of petrol organic amendment with barley straw was applied. The experiment was performed in two experimental series with and without triticale cover. It was found ...

BACKGROUND Since 2005, the Australian Government has subsidized the production and distribution of Low Aromatic Fuel (LAF) as a deterrent against petrol (gasoline) sniffing in remote Indigenous communities. LAF is used in place of unleaded petrol as a fuel for vehicles and other engines. This paper reports findings from an independent evaluation of the LAF rollout. METHODS Forty one Indigenou...

In this paper a multi-criteria fuel distribution problem similar to the common CVRP is considered with the real-life coordinates of gas stations obtained from a certain petrol company. The optimized criteria are the total distance of all tours and the number of tours. A certain method of solution representation, which ensures a feasible solution was used along a decoding scheme. A simulated ann...

The health aspects of the use of lead in petrol were evaluated in the 1920s in the United States of America and, in spite of warnings from certain lead-toxicity experts, lead addition to petrol became standard international practice. Available data now show that lead in petrol at the scale of use in the 1970s produced significant environmental lead contamination and increased average blood-lead...
