RESUMO
Ohtsuji, H., and Ikeda, M. (1972).Brit. J. industr. Med.,29, 70-73. Quantitative relationship between atmospheric phenol vapour and phenol in the urine of workers in Bakelite factories. A survey in Bakelite factories revealed that the urinary level of total phenol, free plus conjugated, increased in proportion to the phenol concentration to which the subject was exposed in his working environment. This indicates that analysis of urine for phenol is valuable for the monitoring of exposure to phenol in air.
