Monitoring of gas station attendants exposure to benzene, toluene, xylene (BTX) using three-color chromosome painting

27 Feb 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chronic exposure of BTX (benzene, toluene, xylene) may lead to progressive degeneration of bone marrow, aplastic anemia and/or leukemia. In Brazil there is no self-service fuel in gas stations and attendants fill the fuel themselves. Due to this they are chronically exposed to high concentration of BTX. Occupational exposure to benzene has been associated with increased chromosomal aberrations in...
