Assessment of Occupational Exposure to Airborne Phenol and Biological Monitoring of Accumulation Trends.

This study investigates the relationship between occupational exposure to airborne phenol and its biological accumulation in chemical plant workers, with a particular focus on urinary phenol levels. It also explores the influence of job roles, employment duration, protective equipment use, and personal lifestyle habits on internal exposure. A cohort of bisphenol A (BPA) manufacturing workers was classified based on job tasks and exposure characteristics.
