Generation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during woodworking operations [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2012 Occupational exposures to wood dust have been associated with an elevated risk of sinonasal cancer (SNC). Wood dust is recognized as a human carcinogen but the specific cancer causative agent remains unknown. One possible explanation is a co-exposure to; wood dust and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
