摘要:
In this study, postural stability was measured with a microcomputer-based force platform as an indirect assessment of central nervous system effect in 28 sewer workers (age range 23.4 to 64.5 years, standard deviation of 8.7 years). All workers performed four 30-second postural sway tests. The organic-solvent exposure was measured by a photo-ionization detector. The photo-ionization detector was calibrated to measure volatile organic solvents in total benzene equivalence, and concentrations were measured in various parts of the plant. The mean exposure was .32 parts per million (ppm) benzene equivalent (range of .02 to .95 ppm, standard deviation .19 ppm). Based on a covariate adjusted linear multiple-regression model, a statistically significant (p < .05) positive correlation was demonstrated between postural sway and organic-solvent exposure. These workers also had increased postural sway compared with a nonexposed population. The statistically significant correlation between postural sway determinations and organic-solvent exposure was surprising given the very low exposures measured. It is possible that the organic-solvent exposure might not be the causative agent, but rather that the solvents themselves correlate with some other causative exposure, ie, total volatile organics as implicated in the cause of sick-building syndrome.

摘要:
Contamination of drinking water with petroleum products is an increasingly common problem. Physicians are often asked to advise patients about such exposures. This study assessed household exposure from gasoline-contaminated drinking water in a New England household. A sampling strategy was designned to estimate inhalation and ingestion exposure to benzene and three other aromatic hydrocarbons typically found in gasoline-contaminated water. The estimated inhaled doses of all agents were similar to the estimated ingested dose. Over half the inhaled dose of all four agents was associated with shower activities as was over half the estimated total dose by all routes of exposure. Under these conditions, discontinuing ingestion of water contaminated with these agents may decrease the dose of benzene by less than one third, whereas discontinuing both ingestion and showering may decrease the dose of benzene by over three quarters. This limited study suggests that routes of exposure other than ingestion are important and should receive attention in the regulatory and risk-assessment process.

摘要:
Because of the cost involved both for personnel and laboratory analyses, it is incumbent that industrial hygiene (IH) sampling plans be both precise and cost effective. The purpose of this paper is to describe a method of balancing two opposing objectives, increasing precision and decreasing the cost by manipulating the number and nature of IH sample collections. Data from a pilot study were used to obtain an optimum sampling scheme for exposure assessment. The design that obtains the highest precision while controlling costs serves as the model of choice. An approach is illustrated with data from an ongoing study examining health effects of workers exposed to solvents. It is shown that there is a large variation in precision for identical IH measurements, depending on the efficiency of the sampling schedule.
