Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at fire stations: firefighters’exposure monitoring and biomonitoring, and assessment of the contribution to total internal dose

This work characterizes levels of eighteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the breathing airzone of firefighters during their regular work shift at eight Portuguese fire stations, and the firefighters’total internal dose by six urinary monohydroxyl metabolites (OH-PAHs). Total PAHs ( PAHs...
