Method

Ethical approval:
confirmed, but no further information available
Details on study design:
urinary 3,4-DCA-content of two male non-smoking workers, dealing with 3,4-DCA, was monitored before and after the end of an 8 h shift over a period of 147 or 161 days
Exposure assessment:
estimated
Details on exposure:
TYPE OF EXPOSURE: occupational at 8 h work shift in chemical factory
TYPE OF EXPOSURE MEASUREMENT: Biomonitoring (urine)
EXPOSURE PERIOD: 147 or 161 days
DESCRIPTION / DELINEATION OF EXPOSURE GROUPS / CATEGORIES: non-smoking male

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

workers were absorbing 3,4 -DCA during their shift as the urinary detection of the parent compound was in most cases lower before the shift than after. 3,4-DCA was not detected in urinary samples of unexposed controls.
