Human exposure to BTEX emitted from a typical e-waste recycling industrial park: External and internal exposure levels, sources, and probabilistic risk implications.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2022
Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) can be released during extensive activities associated with the disposal of electronic waste (e-waste), which might pose deleterious health effects on workers. In this study, pollution profiles of BTEX in

Methylsiloxanes risk assessment combining external and internal exposure for college students.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Methylsiloxanes (MSs) are widely used as solvents or emollients in various personal care products (PCPs) and may pose a health risk. In this study, we assessed external and internal exposure to MSs among students at two universities in southwestern China.

Evaluation of Internal Exposure to Radioactive Aerosol Generated From Plasma Melting System Using the Bidas Code.

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2021
The radioactive aerosol generated by the Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) decommissioning process can be inhaled by workers and deposited inside the human body, resulting in internal exposure. Because internal exposure, unlike external exposure, is difficult to

The contribution of dermal exposure to the internal exposure of bisphenol A in man

Toxicology Letters, 2011
New findings on Bisphenol A (BPA) contents in thermal printing papers, and receipts, in g/kg concentrations and on its dermal uptake (up to 60%) prompted us to assess the risk arising from dermal exposure. Using physiologically based toxicokinetic modelling, we simulated concentrations in blood, in liver and kidney, the target organs exhibiting the ...

Fetal exposure to isotretinoin—An international problem

Reproductive Toxicology, 2008
Isotretinoin is a known teratogen. Pregnancy prevention programs aimed at minimizing isotretinoin exposure in pregnancy have been implemented in North America with limited success.To compare the management of fetal risk of isotretinoin in three countries, including information given to women, implementation of contraceptive methods, and pregnancy ...
