Styrene exposure of 18 workers in fiberglass reinforced plastic industries was measured for 30-min periods throughout each workday for a week. The styrene uptake was estimated using pulmonary ventilation measurements. All urine voidings were collected separately and the styrene metabolites, mandelic
In biological monitoring of styrene, the exposure is usually related to the urinary concentration of mandelic (MA) and/or phenylglyoxylic (PGA) acids in a urine sample taken after the workshift or on following morning. To study this relationship further, a single-compartment mathematical model was d
