Título Mass screening using specific radioallergosorbent tests (RAST) of workers exposed to isocyanate
Título original Feldstudie mit spezifischen Radio-Allergo-Sorbens-Testen (RAST) bei Isocyanat-Exponierten (TDI) [en alemán]
Información bibliográfica Apr. 1980, No.4, p.100-103. 18 ref.
Resumen Results of RAST tests of serum samples from 117 workers exposed to tolylene diisocyanate. The tests were negative in 83 exposed but symptomless workers; in 34 exposed workers with respiratory symptoms 5 had positive RAST test findings. Apparently, isocyanates have a low degree of antigenic potential, but in the case of exposure to isocyanates together with respiratory symptoms, a positive RAST test shows an allergic condition, in which case the worker should be transferred immediately to another post.
