Odor Thresholds and Breathing Changes of Human Volunteers as Consequences of Sulphur Dioxide Exposure Considering Individual Factors

Objectives: Though sulfur dioxide (SO2) is used widely at workplaces, itseffects on humans are not known. Thresholds are report-edwithout reference to gender or age and occupational exposure limits are basedon effects on lung functioning,although localized effects in the upper airways can be expecte...
