Elevated cancer mortality in a German cohort of bitumen workers: extended follow-up through 2004.
30 Aug 2009 
The mortality follow-up in a cohort of German asphalt workers covered an additional 6 years. Male workers (N = 7919) were classified into four exposure categories: (1) exposure to bitumen only, (2) to bitumen and coal tar, (3) neither to tar nor to ...

Bitumen products induce skin cell apoptosis in chronically exposed road pavers.
29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Worker's exposure to bitumen fumes, via inhalation and skin contamination, is related to adverse effects including an increased risk of lung, stomach and non-melanoma skin cancers and leukaemia. The two major mechanisms regulating ...

Pulmonary evaluation of permissible exposure limit of syntroleum S-8 synthetic jet fuel in mice.
5 Apr 2009 No current studies have systematically examined pulmonary health effects associated with Syntroleum S-8 synthetic jet fuel (S-8). In order to gain an understanding about the threshold concentration in which lung injury is observed, C57BL/6 male mice ...

30 Mar 2009 Low aromatic and dearomatized white spirits (deWS) are often considered less hazardous to health than 'standard' or aromatic white sprit (stdWS, 15-20% aromatics). However, data on health effects of deWS in humans are sparse and controlled exposure ...

30 Mar 2009 A move from 'standard' white spirit (stdWS, 15-20% aromatics) to low-aromatic or dearomatized white spirit (deWS) has been seen, as the latter are considered to carry a smaller risk of health effects. However, data on health risks of deWS on humans ...

Exposure to bitumen fumes and genotoxic effects on Turkish asphalt workers.
30 Mar 2009 OBJECTIVE: Bitumen fumes consist essentially of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their derivatives, some of which are known to be carcinogenic or cocarcinogenic in humans. The aim of this study was to investigate exposure to asphalt fumes ...

Dermal microdialysis of inflammatory markers induced by aliphatic hydrocarbons in rats.
28 Dec 2008 In the present study we made an attempt to understand the skin irritation cascade of selected aliphatic hydrocarbons using microdialysis technique. Microdialysis probes were inserted into dermis in the dorsal skin of hairless rats. After 2h of ...

JP-8 induces immune suppression via a reactive oxygen species NF-kappabeta-dependent mechanism.
16 Dec 2008 Applying jet fuel (JP-8) to the skin of mice induces immune suppression. JP-8-treated keratinocytes secrete prostaglandin E(2), which is essential for activating immune suppressive pathways. The molecular pathway leading to the upregulation of the ...

3 Dec 2008 OBJECTIVES: Residual confounding can be present in epidemiological studies because information on confounding factors was not collected. A Bayesian framework, which has the advantage over frequentist methods that the uncertainty in the association ...
