Effects of inhaled combined Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylenes (BTEX): Toward an environmental exposure model.

TL;DR: Experimental evidence of the deleterious health and neurobehavioral consequences of exposures to the individual components of BTEX were found, but these effects were typically assessed using concentrations and exposure patterns not characteristic of environmental exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

High performance of macrofungi in the production of mycelium-based biofoams using sawdust — Sustainable technology for waste reduction

TL;DR: In this paper, mycelia of macrofungi Pycnoporus sanguineus, Pleurotus albidus and Lentinus velutinus were used to develop biofoams.
Journal ArticleDOI

A benzene vapor sensor based on a metal-organic framework-modified quartz crystal microbalance

TL;DR: In this article, a modified MOF-14 modified QCM sensor was employed to detect benzene vapor by the host-−-guest interaction of MOF with benzene molecule, as well as Lewis acid-base interaction by comparing with other three types of MoF materials, the effect of the ligand on the adsorption is greater than that of the metal point of junction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer incidence in the Agricultural Health Study after 20 years of follow-up.

TL;DR: Although an overall deficit in cancer was observed, there were notable exceptions, including newly observed excesses for AML, thyroid, testicular, and peritoneal cancers, which suggest farm exposures’ relevance to cancer etiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioremediation capability evaluation of benzene and sulfolane contaminated groundwater: Determination of bioremediation parameters.

TL;DR: Sulfolane removal efficiency could be significantly improved through bioaugmentation of specific sulfolane degrading bacterium and 100% sulfolanes removal efficiency was achieved.

A review of human carcinogens--Part F: chemical agents and related occupations.

TL;DR: The Working Group found limited evidence of an association between maternal exposure to painting—before and during pregnancy—and an increased risk of childhood leukaemia in the off spring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Benzene, an experimental multipotential carcinogen: results of the long-term bioassays performed at the Bologna Institute of Oncology.

TL;DR: The Bologna experiments proved for the first time that benzene is an experimental carcinogen and indicated a clear-cut dose-response relationship in benzene carcinogenesis, and the need for more experimental research aimed at assessing the carcinogenic effects of low doses of Benzene, of chemical mixtures containing benzene, and of benzene substitutes is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myelodysplastic syndrome and benzene exposure among petroleum workers: an international pooled analysis.

TL;DR: Relatively low-level exposure to benzene experienced by petroleum distribution workers was associated with an increased risk of MDS, but not AML, suggesting that MDS may be the more relevant health risk for lower exposures.
