  • Title: Historical and modern epidemiological studies on populations exposed to N-substituted aryl compounds.
    Author: Cartwright RA.
    Journal: Environ Health Perspect; 1983 Mar; 49():13-9. PubMed ID: 6339220.
    Abstract:
    The historical exposures to aromatic amines of various occupational groups are briefly reviewed. Modern studies indicate that other occupational groups might have risks worth investigating; these include machinists and workers in the chemical industry. Details of a recent investigation into the exposure of dye workers are given which indicate a lowered risk in recent years since the introduction of safety measures. Nonoccupational exposures to the aromatic amines are also discussed. They include cigarette smoking and phenacetin abuse, the former being a potent causal agent in bladder cancer.
