Evaluation d'une exposition professionnelle au chrome par le dosage du chrome urinaire

Evaluation of occupational chromium exposure by urine analyses

Beurteilung der beruflichen Chrom-Aussetzung durch die Dosierung des Chromgehaltes im Urin

  • Published:
Sozial- und Präventivmedizin

Summary

Determinations of urinary chromium on 26 workers from 6 chromium electroplating workshops are presented and discussed in relation with results of airborne chromium.

Rapid apparition of chromium in urine after the beginning of exposure tends to show that urinary analysis are a convenient test for the biological monitoring of chromium exposure.

Zusammenfassung

Die Ergebnisse der Messung des Chromgehaltes im Urin bei Arbeitern in elektrolytischen Chromierungswerkstätten werden gegeben und in Bezug auf die Arbeitsbedingungen und insbesondere auf den Chrom-Luftgehalt analysiert.

Das Interesse dieser Urindosierung als biologischer Expositionstest wird unterstrichen.
