Christina Rosenberg,Mervi Hämeilä,Jarkko Tornaeus,Kirsi Säkkinen,Katriina Puttonen,Anne Korpi,Mirja Kiilunen,Markku Linnainmaa,Antti Hesso +8 more
TL;DR: The concentrations reported may pose a health hazard to the workers, although evaluation of the association between FR exposure and adverse health effects is hampered by lacking occupational exposure limits.

Analysis of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in urine using high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry.
TL;DR: The developed HPLC-MS/MS method for quantification of 8-OHdG in urine samples involved only minimal sample handling including the addition of a buffer and an internal standard followed by centrifugation before the samples are ready for analysis.

Passive monitoring method for 3-ethenylpyridine: a marker for environmental tobacco smoke.
TL;DR: A new method based on passive sampling and subsequent measurement of the concentration of 3-ethenylpyridine, a vapor-phase compound specific to tobacco smoke, which is well-suited for large-scale monitoring of environmental tobacco smoke.

Micronuclei, hemoglobin adducts and respiratory tract irritation in mice after inhalation of toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and 4,4'-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI).

TL;DR: Investigation of the genotoxicity and protein binding of inhaled TDI and MDI in mice by examining micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow and peripheral blood and TDI- andMDI-derived adducts in hemoglobin indicates inhalation of TDI or MDI, at levels that induce toxic effects, does not have detectable genotoxic effects in mice.

Environmental and occupational exposure to resorcinol in Finland.
TL;DR: Occupational exposure in hairdresser work and in the manufacture of tyres, adhesive resins and glue-laminated timber is investigated by biomonitoring total resorcinol concentration in urine samples and exposure was at the same level as those of the reference population of occupationally non-exposed volunteers.
