  • Title: Epidemiology of toluene diisocyanate (TDI)-induced respiratory disease.
    Author: Peters JM, Wegman DH.
    Journal: Environ Health Perspect; 1975 Jun; 11():97-100. PubMed ID: 170078.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes our experience with the respiratory effects of TDI. Five respiratory reactions attributable to TDI are described with supporting evidence. The reactions are sensitization, irritation from overexposure, acute loss of ventilatory capacity, accelerated loss of pulmonary function and induction of a general asthmatic state. Evidence is presented that suggests a safe exposure level.
