Figure 1From: Integrated exposure assessment of sewage workers to genotoxicants: an urinary biomarker approach and oxidative stress evaluation Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) concentration patterns in the workplaces air and from the nearest outdoor monitoring stations. Statistically significant higher means concentrations (P < 0.01) among sewage workers compared to all other groups for all substances. Comparison of workplace and ambient air concentrations is incomplete because some VOCs measured in the workplaces are not measured by traffic or background urban monitors (undecane, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, styrene, decane and 1,4-dichlorobenzene).Back to article page
