In a nested case-control study of cancers associated with chemical exposures in the wood industry, Kauppinen et al. (1986) found a significantly increased risk of respiratory system cancer associated with exposure to phenol and phenol in wood dust. As is often the case in occupational settings, these exposures were confounded by smoking and exposures to other materials like pesticides. The increased risk observed for exposure to phenol was almost 5-fold (odds ratio of 4.94), but showed no dose-related increase. This risk dropped to 4-fold with adjustments for smoking history, and to less than 3-fold (and non-significant) when workers exposed to both phenols and pesticides were excluded from the analysis. [Pg.53]

Occupational exposure to chromium(VI) compounds in a number of industries has been associated with increased risk of respiratory system cancers, primarily bronchogenic and nasal. Among the industries investigated in retrospective mortality studies are chromate production, chromate pigment production and use, chrome plating, stainless steel welding, ferrochromium alloy production, and leather tanning. [Pg.80]

Of more immediate geochemical relevance is the dissimilatory reduction of sulfate to hydrogen sulfide which is a major topic for discussion in Chapter 6.2. Sometimes called sulfate respiration the process involves oxidation of organic matter (or hydrogen) with the transfer of electrons to sulfate instead of oxygen as in the majority of respiratory systems. The process is accompanied by a net release of free enei which is utilized by the org m-ism for growth (e.g. eqn (1), Wake et al., 1977). [Pg.296]

The ultrasonic washing machine is used for cleaning the fuU-face and semi-face masks. The worker is obligated to clean the protection of respiratory system at the end of each shift. However, not always the employees respect this rule. For this purpose, it will be useful to hire a company which will provide the cleaning, maintenance and revision of the masks. The service workers will clean the masks, check the filters etc., so the mask will be prepared for the next use. The employee will lift up the mask before the start of each shift and hand it in at the end of the shift at a particular place. [Pg.1204]
