Chemical pneumonitis following household exposure to hydrofluoric acid
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-04)
A previously healthy 26-year-old woman developed hemorrhagic alveolitis and adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) following use of a hydrofluoric acid-containing household cleaning agent. Exposure was inhalational in ...
Comparison of assays for gap junctional communication using human embryocarcinoma cells exposed to dieldrin
(Elsevier, 1990-07)
Several assays were compared for their ability to detect inhibition of gap junctional communication in human embryocarcinoma cells exposed to the pesticide dieldrin. Included in this evaluation was a recently developed ...
Time-resolved cutaneous absorption and permeation rates of methanol in human volunteers
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-10)
This paper reports on an experimental study of dermal exposure to neat methanol in human volunteers for the purposes of estimating percutaneous absorption rates, permeation kinetics, baseline (pre-exposure) levels of ...
Three-dimensional solubility parameters and chemical protective clothing permeation. II. Modeling diffusion coefficients, breakthrough times, and steady-state permeation rates of organic solvents in Viton® gloves
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1993-10-15)
Three-dimensional (3-D) solubility parameters are used in separate models of the solubility, S , and diffusion coefficient, D , of organic solvents in polymers. Modeled values of these variables are then combined in ...
Median mononeuropathy among active workers: Are there differences between symptomatic and asymptomatic workers?
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1998-04)
The objective was to determine whether symptomatic workers with an abnormal sensory nerve conduction study consistent with carpal tunnel syndrome differed, in terms of electrophysiologic measures, psychosocial, demographic, ...
Inhibition of Hen Brain Acetylcholinesterase and Neurotoxic Esterase by Chlorpyrifos in Vivo and Kinetics of Inhibition by Chlorpyrifos Oxon in Vitro: Application to Assessment of Neuropathic Risk
(Elsevier, 1993-04)
Inhibition of Hen Brain Acetylcholinesterase and Neurotoxic Esterase by Chlorpyrifos in Vivo and Kinetics of Inhibition by Chlorpyrifos Oxon in Vitro : Application to Assessment of Neuropathic Risk. Richardson, R. J., ...
Application of the Shifting Method as a Technique to Correct for the Background in Quantitative Analysis by Open-Path FTIR
(Air & Waste Management Association, 1999-02)
Acute respiratory effects on workers exposed to metalworking fluid aerosols in an automotive transmission plant
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-05)
Exposure to metalworking fluids has been linked to modest cross-shift reductions in FEV 1 and occupational asthma. To identify responsible agents, we measured personal exposures to thoracic particulate (TP), viable plus ...
Workplace surveillance for carpal tunnel syndrome using hand diagrams
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-12)
Four hundred and eleven workers from 4 different companies participated in a worksite screening program designed, in part, to estimate the prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Each worker completed a discomfort ...
The sources of aerosol elemental carbon at Allegheny Mountain
(Elsevier, 1990)
Aerosol elemental carbon measurements were taken at two rural sites in southwestern Pennsylvania during August 1983. Carbon, though a small part of the aerosol mass at both sites, was a leading constituent of the aerosol ...
