Título Occupational exposure to hexachlorocyclohexane - I. Body burden of HVH-isomers
Información bibliográfica Nov. 1980, Vol.47, No.2, p.119-127. Illus. 22 ref.
Resumen Report on the examination of 57 production workers (mean exposure 10±9 years) with special regard to the levels of the isomers of HCH in blood in adipose tissue. Whereas the TLV was not exceeded in any of the workplaces, considerable concentrations of all HCH-isomers were found in the serum of the workers, and the concentrations in the adipose tissue were even 300 times higher. This indicates a pronounced accumulation of this substance in the human body, requiring biological monitoring of exposed persons by determination of the substance in blood.
