No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780367394554

Focusing on chemicals found in the workplace, Occupational Toxicology introduces the basic tenets of the science of toxicology that underpin the application of toxicological information to the workplace. The book contains chapters on the most important workplace exposures, such as metals, pesticides, solvents, plastics, gases, and particulate matter, and informs the reader as to the types of toxicity seen in the workplace environment and the organs likely to be affected. The lung and the skin are given individual attention, as these are important sites of injury/disease caused by exposure to chemicals. It also covers genotoxicity, cancer, and their testing.

Fire Toxicity
Toxic fire effluents are responsible for the majority of fire deaths, and an increasing large majority of fire injuries, driven by the widespread and increasing use of synthetic polymers. Fire safety has focused on preventing ignition and reducing flame spread through reducing the rate of heat release, while neglecting the important issue of fire toxicity. This is the first reference work on fire toxicity and the only scientific publication on the subject in the last 15 years.Assessment of toxic effects of fires is increasingly being recognised as a key factor in the assessment of fire hazards. This book raises important issues including the types of toxic effluents that different fires produce, their physiological effects, methods for generation and assessment of fire toxicity, current and proposed regulations and approaches to modelling the toxic impact of fires.The contributors to Fire toxicity represent an international team of the leading experts in each aspect of this challenging and important field. This book provides an important reference work for professionals in the fire community, including fire fighters, fire investigators, regulators, fire safety engineers, and formulators of fire-safe materials. It will also prove invaluable to researchers in academia and industry.
