建立了一个纸浆、纸张和纸制品工业接触测量的国际数据库,用于流行病学研究和危害控制的接触评估。工业卫生和生物监测数据是从参加国际癌症研究机构多中心研究的国家收集的。每个测量的特点是国家,工厂类型和数量,部门,工作,代理测量,抽样方法,测量结果的标准单位,持续时间和抽样日期,代表性评估,测量人员,测量的目的,和备注(如测量地点和偏差)。来自13个国家的246种不同化学试剂的31,000多个测量结果来自纸浆(45%的测量),纸/纸板/回收(12%)和纸制品(11%)米尔斯工厂或其非生产部门(23%)。大多数测量(82%)是在1980年之后进行的。最常测量的物剂组是无机气体(35%),其次是有机化合物(25%)、溶剂(18%)、矿物粉尘(12%)、金属(6%)和生物气溶胶(3%)。超过90%的测量结果没有明显的偏差,但其真正的代表性很难评估。二氧化硫、二氧化氯、一氧化碳、二氧化氮、臭氧、氨、甲醛和某些溶剂等各种物质的浓度往往超过目前的职业接触限值。该数据库总结了大量以前未公布的接触数据,为研究国际一级的接触模式提供了独特的机会,并确定了需要进一步关注和调查的接触情况。
An international data base of exposure measurements in the pulp, paper and paper product industries was constructed to be used in exposure assessment for epidemiology studies and hazard control. Industrial hygiene and biological monitoring data were collected from countries participating in the multicentric study of the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Each measurement was characterized by country, mill type and number, department, job, agent measured, sampling method, measurement result in the standard unit, duration and date of sampling, assessment of representativeness, measurer, purpose of measurements, and remarks (e.g. on measurement sites and biases). Over 31,000 measurement results on 246 different chemical agents from 13 countries were available from pulp (45% of measurements), paper/paperboard/recycling (12%) and paper product (11%) mills or from their non-production departments (23%). Most measurements (82%) were carried out after 1980. The most frequently measured group of agents was inorganic gases (35%), followed by organic compounds (25%), solvents (18%), mineral dusts (12%), metals (6%) and bioaerosols (3%). Over 90% of the measurements were without an obvious bias, but their true representativeness is difficult to assess. Concentrations of various agents, including sulfur dioxide, chlorine dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, ammonia, formaldehyde and some solvents, often exceeded current occupational exposure limits. This data base summarizes a great deal of previously unpublished exposure data, provides a unique opportunity to study exposure patterns at the international level and identifies exposure situations that require further attention and investigation.
