Temporal, Personal and Spatial Variability in Dermal Exposure

摘要

A database of dermal exposure measurements (DERMDAT)comprising data from 20 surveys was created. The majority of dermal exposure measurements were from agricultural settings in which workers' exposure to pesticides was investigated. Other data came from studies of workers exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g.coke-oven workers and paving workers) and from studies of subjects exposed to complex mixtures (tuber industry). The database contains approximately 6400 observations.
