Title: [Evaluation of occupational exposure to mineral oil]. Author: Gaweda E, Kurpiewska J, Benczek KM, Kijeńska D. Journal: Med Pr; 2000; 51(4):356-64. PubMed ID: 11059409. Abstract: The results of measurements of mineral oil concentrations in the air of selected workposts in five plants, taken in 1996-99, are presented. Absorption spectrometry in IR was used for determining mineral oils. In order to collect oil mist on a glass filter a personal sampling or stationary method was used. The results obtained show that the level of exposure to mineral oils in Polish industry is rather low. In few cases only oil mist was present in the air in amounts exceeding the Polish MAC value of 5 mg/m3. It was also noted that the situation has improved during the recent years.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
