| Abstract |
Radiological and lung function studies in 57 workers in a food factory exposed to 1.5-8.2mg/m3 sulfur dioxide and 49 controls. The incidence of chronic bronchitis and respiratory impairment was higher in the exposed group. Reduction of the exposure limit to 1ppm (2.6mg/m3) is proposed. |
