Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to inhalable dust and endotoxins in agricultural industries
TL;DR: Overall, exposure to endotoxins over the whole range of agricultural industries is high and a 10-1,000 fold reduction is needed to reduce endotoxin related health risks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of Personal Occupational Exposure Levels to Inhalable Dust, Endotoxin, β(1→3)-Glucan and Fungal Extracellular Polysaccharides in the Waste Management Chain
TL;DR: Occupational bioaerosol exposure in the waste management chain is lowest for outdoor handling of waste and highest when waste is handled indoors, suggesting workers are at risk of developing adverse health effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endotoxin exposure and symptoms in wastewater treatment workers
TL;DR: Wastewater treatment workers reported a wide range of symptoms that may be work-related, and microbial exposures such as endotoxin seem to play a causal role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of airborne endotoxin exposure assessment: effects of filter type, transport conditions, extraction solutions, and storage of samples and extracts.
TL;DR: G gaps in the CEN protocol are investigated and data is provided with which to fully specify a protocol for standardization of endotoxin exposure assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of extraction and assay media on analysis of airborne endotoxin
TL;DR: Of the media tested, only Tween enhances the efficiency of endotoxin extraction from airborne dust samples in a consistent manner, and is recommended combined with dilution and LAL analysis in PFW.
