Abstract Respiratory disease resulting from prolonged exposure to wood dusts may be due to a hypersensitivity reaction in addition to the nonspecific toxic or irritant effects of the inhaled materials. In four patients the hypersensitivity response was manifested by two clinical patterns, one characterized by immediate onset and rapid reversibility of ...

Two patients developed severe respiratory difficulty after occupational exposure to sawdust derived from abiruana wood. Both patients had positive immediate wheal-and-flare responses to skin tests with an extract of abiruana wood. Skin tests to other wood dusts were negative.

Wood-dust exposure during wood-working processes
The Annals of Occupational Hygiene, 1995Personal and ambient full shift concentrations of inhalable wood dust were measured at different wood-working processes in two joineries and a furniture factory in The Netherlands. The current occupational exposure limit for wood dust is still 5 mg m-3 total dust, but the Dutch Expert Committee for Occupational Standards has recently recommended a ...

Wood Dust Levels in Alberta Sawmills
Archives of Environmental & Occupational Health, 2009Sawmills in the Canadian province of Alberta were surveyed in order to identify occupations at greatest risk and to guide compliance measures. Two hundred and ten wood dust samples (inhalable) were collected from nine Alberta sawmills using Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM) personal samplers.

Wood-dust Exposures and Cancer of the Colon
International Journal of Occupational and Environmental Health, 1998Previous studies of workers exposed to wood dusts have shown a decreased risk of cancer of the colon in these workers. However, none of these studies adequately controlled for potential confounders, such as physical activity, diet, and family history of colorectal cancer.

Dust Exposures in the Wood Processing Industry
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1999Workers at four different woodworking processes--two logging sites, four sawmills, one major woodchipping operation, and five joineries situated in the state of New South Wales in Australia--were studied for personal inhalable dust exposures (N = 182).

WOOD-RELATED OCCUPATIONS, WOOD DUST EXPOSURE, AND SINONASAL CANCER
American Journal of Epidemiology, 1986A case-control study was conducted to examine the relations between type of woodworking and the extent of wood dust exposure to the risks for specific histologic types of sinonasal cancer. In cooperation with the major treatment centers in the Netherlands, 116 male patients newly diagnosed between 1978 and 1981 with primary malignancies of epithelial ...

Respiratory allergy to exotic wood dust
Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1973SummaryThree cases are presented showing nasal and respiratory allergy to cocabolla (Dalbergia retusa) an exotic timber which is a member of the rosewood family, and also to other wood dusts. They gave positive immediate reactions on patch testing, which became negative after injections of aqueous extracts.
