Occupational and environmental exposure of garage workers and taxi drivers to airbone manganese arising from the use of methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl in unleaded gasoline / J. Zayed... [et al.]

Sumario: Occupational and environmental exposure to airbone manganese has been measured for two groups of workers in Montreal, taxi drivers and garage mechanics. In Canada methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT) has replaced lead as an anti-knock agent in gasoline and represents a potentially important source of manganese contamination for the population in general and for the two chosen groups of workers in particular. Twenty workers wore a personal air sampler for five consecutive working days and two off-work periods
