Worker exposure to flame retardants in manufacturing, construction and service industries

Worker exposure to flame retardants in manufacturing, construction and service industries

Workers in several industries are occupationally exposed to flame retardants. This study characterizes flame retardant exposure for nine industries through air and hand wipe measures for 105 workers. Specifically, we analyzed 24 analytes from three chemical classes: organophosphate flame retardants...
