- Title
Exposure Assessment to Preformed Environmental N-Nitroso Compounds from the Point of View of Our Own Studies.
- Authors
Fine, David H.
- Abstract
The largest human exposure to N-nitrosamines is in the industrial section. Leather tanners are exposed to N-nitrosodimethylamine at levels up to 47 μg/m3, corresponding to 440 μg/person/day. Workers in the curing area of tire factories are exposed to N-nitrosomorpholine at levels up to 27 μg/m3, corresponding to a intake of 250 μg/person/day. These industrial exposures are considerably greater than exposure via foodstuffs, beer, cosmetics, cutting fluids and herbicides. Copyright © 1980 S. Karger AG, Basel
