2. Development and Evaluation of a Denuder-Filter System Designed for Sampling Diisocyanate Aerosols
Abstract : There are many occupational environments in which isocyanates or PUR-products are used, produced or processed. During these operations there is always a risk of isocyanate exposure, which may lead to severe health problems. Isocyanates principally affect the respiratory system and they are the main cause of occupational asthma. READ MORE

3. Chemical and Clinical Studies of Isocyanate Contact Allergy with focus on diphenylmethane diisocyanate
Abstract : Isocyanates are highly reactive compounds used in the production of polyurethane. Exposure to isocyanates is mainly associated with respiratory disorders, but may also result in allergic contact dermatitis. Reports describing contact allergy to isocyanates are few in number and it has been considered a rare phenomenon. READ MORE
