由于有报道称接触环氧乙烷会增加患白血病的风险，一项对德克萨斯州内奇斯港德士古化学公司工厂可能接触环氧乙烷的工人进行的死亡率研究，进行了。总共确定了767名可能接触环氧乙烷的男性。该队列中发生46例死亡，预期为80例（标准化死亡率比; SMR = 58）。未观察到白血病死亡，也未观察到任何特定死因的统计学显著性过度。
Because of reports linking an increased risk of leukemia with exposure to ethylene oxide, a mortality study of workers with potential exposure to ethylene oxide at the Texaco Chemical Company Plant in Port Neches, Tex., was undertaken. A total of 767 males with potential exposure to ethylene oxide were identified. Forty-six deaths occurred in this cohort with 80 expected (standardized mortality ratio; SMR = 58). No deaths from leukemia were seen, nor were there any statistically significant excesses from any specific causes of death.
