Identification and characterization of 1-hydroxypyrene contents in urine as a marker of exposure to pah in workers of electrolysis workshops at aluminum production
Abstract:Potential harmful effects produced by highly toxic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) on health of workers employed at aluminum production make it necessary to identify biomarkers of exposure to the toxicants and to assess health risks. Our research goal was to identify and assess contents of 1-hydroxypytene (1-ОНРyr) as a biomarker of exposure to PAH. The chemical was identified in urine of workers from electrolysis workshops where either conventional or updated aluminum production technologies were employed. We co… Show more
