Airport apron workers are occupationally exposed to jet exhaust and major concern is related to the exposure to ultrafine particles (UFP) from aircrafts. To date, little attention has been given to occupational exposures to aircraft-related UFP, although aircraft engines have high emissions of ultrafine particles, which are orders of magnitude higher ...

International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology, 2019
BackgroundPrevious work has shown that chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) severity may be associated with particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) and black carbon (BC) in CRS patients without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). Data regarding occupational exposures, however, are lacking. We assessed the impact of PM2.5, BC, as well as occupational airborne exposure on CRS disease

Airway Wall Remodeling Induced by Occupational Mineral Dusts and Air Pollutant Particles*
Chest, 2002COPD has been reported in workers exposed to particulates, and there is increasing evidence that high levels of ambient particulate pollutants may also be associated with COPD. The studies here investigate the hypothesis that particulates, including air pollution particles, can induce airway wall fibrosis, a process that can lead to COPD.Rat tracheal ...

Occupational exposure to air pollution and cancer risk among Danish urban mail carriers
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 2004Our objective was to study the risk of cancer associated with exposure to air pollution among mail carriers.We carried out a retrospective cohort study of 17,233 persons who had been mail carriers during the period 1898-1996. Data on employment was obtained from company files.

Occupational Exposure to Hazardous Airborne Pollutants: Effects of Air Mixing and Source Location
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, 2010The presence of airborne pollutants in indoor environments has been associated with occupants' discomfort and/or adverse health effects. This study investigates occupational exposure in relation to indoor air mixing and source location relative to a human body.

Dose to the Respiratory Tract from Personal, Occupational and Community Air Pollutants
Environmental Letters, 1971Abstract The doses (Concentration × Time) to the respiratory tract by urban, occupational and personal (smoking) pollutants were calculated by assuming pollutant concentration in air equivalent to air quality standards, threshold limit values and reported cigarette smoke concentrations, respectively.

[Air pollution in an industrial environment and occupational diseases].
Sozial- und Praventivmedizin, 1976Most of the occupational diseases are related to air pollution at the work place. The distribution of gases and vapours and their human absorption are briefly described. The deposition of particles is a function of their physical properties, of the pattern of the respiratory airways and of pulmonary ventilation parameters.
