Title: Bronchopulmonary disease in the workplace. Challenge testing with occupational agents. Author: Hendrick DJ. Journal: Ann Allergy; 1983 Aug; 51(2 Pt 1):179-84. PubMed ID: 6881606.

Challenge exposures may be conducted in either the workplace or the laboratory, and surveillance should extend for 24 hours unless the probability of late responses is negligible.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
