Strategies for determining occupational exposures in risk assessments : a review and a proposal for assessing fungicide exposures in the lumber industry / Kay Teschke... [et al.]
Sumario: To select an exposure monitoring protocol for assessing the occupational risks of fungicides in the lumber industry, the main strategies for determining exposures for risk assessment were reviewed. A survey of lumber industry work sites using fungicides observed the methods of application and opportunities for exposure. In addition, a review of existing measurement data was done. These investigations indicated that fungicide application techniques and process locations were varied from site to site, such that it would be extremely difficult to select a few representative locations for quasi-experimental studies, as is usually done in agricultural pesticide exposure assessment. Existing measurement data mainly describe exposures to fungicides no longer in use, and do not cover the range of application techniques or process technology observed in the survey. A probability sample of the exposed population was therefore proposed
