Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Survey of chemical exposures in a viscose rayon plant

Notes: Sumario: Measurements of carbon disulphide and hydrogen sulphide in a Belgian viscose rayon plant, using personal monitoring with charcoal tubes for carbon disulphide and impingers for hydrogen sulphide, showed considerable different jobs (3-147 mg m exp.(-3) for carbon disulphide and 0-9 mg m exp.(-3) fro hydrogen sulphide). Air pollutants such as mercury and sulphuric acid, which have been reported in some other studies, were not present. The lead in blood concentration found in four plumbers ranged from 28 to 49 microg 100 ml exp. (-1). The implications of these finding for industrial hygiene and epidemiology are discussedRelated records: En: The Annals of occupational hygiene. - Oxford [etc.]. - nº 6, December 1991 ; p. 619-631Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Contaminantes químicos Disulfuro de carbono Sulfuro de hidrógeno Fibras sintéticas Industria textil Muestreos Contaminación atmosférica Control de contaminantes Medicina laboral Epidemiología Enfermedades profesionales Encuestas Otros autores: Vanhoorne, M.
