Assessment of intermittent trichloroethylene exposure in vapor degreasing / Arne Ulander, Anders Seldén, Gunnar Ahlborg
Sumario: To validate various sampling strategies in assessment of trichloroethylene exposure, urine and air samples were obtained from 29 metal workers involved in vapor degreasing. Urinary trichloroacetic acid and trichloroethanol were useful metabolites to estimate TCE exposure on a group basis, but the predictive value of a single urine sample was low when related to the air concentration. With intermittent TCE exposure, the best information is obtained by analyzing both metabolites
