| Resumen |
Report on studies in 38 female shoe industry workers exposed to 60-100ppm toluene, and a control group. Subjective symptoms (weakness, dysmenorrhoea, itching, dermatitis of hands) were significantly more frequent in the exposed group. The other chief differences found were in the rate of Mommsen's toxic granules in the peripheral neutrophils, urinary hippuric acid levels, and results of neuromuscular function tests. It is suggested that the TLV for toluene in Japan, 100ppm, be reconsidered. |
