Elevated Soil Lead: Statistical Modeling and Apportionment of Contributions from Lead-based Paint and Leaded Gasoline
While it is widely accepted that lead-based paint and leaded gasoline are primary sources of elevated concentrations of lead in residential soils, conclusions regarding their relative contributions are mixed and generally study specific. We develop a novel nonlinear regression for soil lead concentrations over time. It is argued that this methodology provides useful insights into the partitioni...

متن کاملRetrospective assessment of solvent exposure in paint manufacturing.
This paper describes how exposure to solvents at two large paint making sites was assessed in a study carried out to investigate the possibility of neuropsychological effects resulting from long term exposure to organic solvents. A job exposure matrix was constructed by buildings and year. A detailed plant history was taken and this was used to identify uniform exposure periods during which wor...
متن کاملSunset for Leaded Aviation Gasoline?
F lying in a small piston-engine plane bears little resemblance to flying in a commercial jet. There are no lines at the airport, no baggage checks, and often less legroom once you duck inside the cabin. You can feel every bump in the tarmac as the plane heads down the runway, every rumble of the engine. Once you are aloft there's no denying the improbability of flight; the low cruising altitud...
متن کاملAssessment of Thyroid Function in Workers Occupationally Exposed to Gasoline and Paint Products in Anambra Central of Nigeria
Hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylene (BTEX) found in gasoline and organic solvents are ubiquitous in the environment, and are known to have toxic effects in human system. This study therefore investigated the thyroid function of workers occupationally exposed to gasoline and paint products using TSH, T3 and T4 as markers. A total of 162 subjects were recruited for this study...
