  • Title: Manganese in occupational arc welding fumes--aspects on physiochemical properties, with focus on solubility.
    Author: Taube F.
    Journal: Ann Occup Hyg; 2013 Jan; 57(1):6-25. PubMed ID: 22997412.
    Abstract:
    Physicochemical properties, such as particle sizes, composition, and solubility of welding fumes are decisive for the bioaccessibility of manganese and thereby for the manganese cytotoxic and neurotoxic effects arising from various welding fumes. Because of the diverse results within the research on welding fume solubility, this article aims to review and discuss recent literature on physicochemical properties of gas metal arc welding, shielded metal arc welding, and flux-cored arc welding fumes, with focus on solubility properties. This article also presents a short introduction to the literature on arc welding techniques, health effects from manganese, and occupational exposure to manganese among welders.
