The assessment of health risks due to occupational and environmental exposures has become, over the course of the years, increasingly important. Exposure and biochemical effects are estimated by biological monitoring, through the systematic collection of specimens from potentially exposed humans. In

The study validated the use of urinary toluene diamine (TDA) in postshift samples as an indicator of preceding 8-h exposure to toluene diisocyanate (TDI). Nine workers exposed in TDI-based polyurethane foam production were studied Their exposure levels varied in 8-h time-averaged samples from 9 5 to
The relationship between isoflurane environmental concentrations in operating rooms and the corresponding isoflurane concentration in the exhaled air of the operating personnel at the end of the exposure has been investigated. Isoflurane was retained in an adsorbent cartridge and after thermal desor
The concentration of halothane (fluothane) in the ambient atmosphere was determined in five operating theaters of two hospitals in Italy. The concentrations of halothane in the ambient air exceeded the NIOSH recommended time-weighted average exposure levels (median value: 10.38 mg/m3). Halothane was
