Mortality and incidence of cancer at four factories making phenoxy herbicides / David Coggon, Brian Pannett, Paul Winter
Sumario: To assess the possible carcinogenicity of phenoxy herbicides and related chlorophenols and dioxins, the International Agency for Research on Cancer is cooerdinating an international collaborative study of workers exposed to these compounds in their production or use. Four British cohorts of chemical manufacturers wich have been recruited to the survey are described. A nested case-control study did not point to any occupational cause for this excess, but further evaluation will be needed during continued follow up
