中国GBZ2.1与德国MAK工作场所化学有害因素职业接触限值比较研究

系统比较中国现行职业接触限值标准GBZ2.1-2007与德国职业接触限值MAK在定义、制定原则和具体数值方面的差异,为中国GBZ2.1的修订提供建议和依据。将 GBZ2.1中规定的OELs与德国MAK于2015年公布的化学有害因素 OELs ,按不同类型建立比较分析数据库,并进行比较分析,分析结果表明:中德2国在职业接触限值的制定原则,化学有害因素的来源、数量与标识等方面有显著差异。 因此,我国应加强对化学性有害因素孕期毒性接触限值的研究和应用。中德在选择化学性有害因素制定OELs时各有侧重,我国在重金属方面制定的OELs,如:钴、钼、铍、铊等,是德国MAK以及美国ACGIH中所未有的,而德国则不再为致癌物质制定OELs。中、德均制定有OELs的化学性有害因素在数值上差异较大,中国有部分OELs同时高于德国MAK和美国ACGIH。我国的职业接触限值更新频率较慢,应缩短OELs更新周期,在对现行的GBZ2.1进行制修订时,可将发达国家OELs作为1项参考。德国风险分级评估方法对致癌物质的管理和评估值得进一步探讨及研究。     

基于概率方法的中国居民饮水途径砷暴露健康风险评估

通过文献调研收集我国3类主要饮用水类型的总砷浓度.通过回归模型获得不同年龄段人群饮水暴露参数分布模式.基于概率方法评价不同水体和不同人群由于砷暴露造成的致癌风险和非致癌风险.结果发现,全国各类水体的总砷浓度几何均值为（13.0±38.1）μg·L^-1.其中饮用水中的最高砷浓度出现在内蒙古,广西和山西饮用水中也有较高总砷检出.与相关标准中的砷浓度标准相比,未经处理的井水和未经处理的地表水源水超标的概率分别为23.2%和18.4%.非致癌风险评估发现,井水和地表水源水饮用人群超过单日暴露剂量阈值的概率分别为24.0%和19.5%.致癌风险评估发现,我国全人群终生饮水砷摄入导致的致癌风险（LCR）中位数为3.22×10^-5,处于可接受水平.其中18~45岁人群有最大的风险贡献,LCR中位数为1.37×10^-5.井水和地表水源水饮用人群LCR仍有一定概率超过美国环保署（US EPA）规定的严重风险水平.综上所述,我国居民存在潜在的饮用水砷暴露健康风险,需要进一步加强饮用水砷污染控制以降低砷引发的健康风险和保障饮水安全.同时建议加强风险阈值研究以期真实反映砷暴露风险,为保护居民健康提供科学依据.     

我国北方典型地区居民呼吸暴露参数研究

呼吸暴露参数是准确估算人体对污染物的暴露剂量和健康风险评估的重要参数之一,而我国目前对于该项工作的调查研究较少.采用问卷调查的方式对我国北方典型地区——太原的2 860名受试者进行了时间-活动模式的研究,结合人体能量估算模型,计算出适合该地区居民的呼吸速率参数,并与国内外情况进行对比分析.结果表明:该地区居民室内日平均活动时间为16.1～18.4 h;不同性别、不同年龄组的城市和农村居民从事各种强度活动的时间有很大差异;同时得出,该市城市居民长期暴露的呼吸速率参数为10.72～14.53 m3/d,农村居民为15.61～22.59 m3/d.与我国相关文献数据和美国环境保护署(US EPA)的数据相比,如果直接引用US EPA的数据,将会给健康风险带来30%～50%的偏差.      

上海室内外灰尘中多氯联苯及其人体暴露评估

2008年11月~2009年6月以气象学分4个季度测定了上海地区居民家庭室内外灰尘中多氯联苯(PCBs)的浓度.研究表明,春季和冬季室内灰尘中PCBs平均含量高于夏季和秋季,而室外灰尘中PCBs含量表现相反特征.单个室内样品∑PCBs浓度范围为1.0×103~1.97×106pg/g,室外为n.d.~1.96×106pg/g.此外,通过生理学的体外实验模拟人体胃肠消化过程,并利用响应面法研究影响PCBs生物有效性的因素,发现胆汁浓度相对于消化时间、液固比和污染物浓度对PCBs生物有效性影响最大.依据室内外灰尘中PCBs年平均浓度、生物有效性及灰尘摄入量计算得出,上海地区儿童和成人通过摄入灰尘人均PCBs的日暴露量分别为2.657×102~1.078×104pg/d和1.328×102~ 5.392×103pg/d.

The BG Measurement System for Hazardous Substances (BGMG) and the Exposure Database of Hazardous Substances (MEGA)

German employers ‘ liability insurance associations or Berufsgenossenschaften (BGs)—institutions for statutoryaccident insurance—maintain a measurement system for hazardous substances, the so-called BGMG. The aimof the BGMG is to determine and document valid results of measurements of exposure primarily for preventionpurposes. The data are collected systematically, in parallel to the sampling in a company. Parameters which aresupposed to have a visible effect on exposure levels are documented. The MEGA database (documentation ofmeasurement data relating to workplace exposure to hazardous substances) holds 1,629 million measurementvalues, which have been compiled in since 1972. The database offers a host of selection possibilities forassessments depending on the evaluation strategy.     

EU Directive,ICNIRP Guidelines and Polish Legislation on Electromagnetic Fields

This review describes the general provisions of and the philosophy behind European Directive 2004/40/EC and ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) guidelines. As an example of national legislation on the protection of workers against excessive electromagnetic field exposure, regulations established in Poland are summarized. The problems of a practical implementation of the Directive’s provisions are discussed.     

Occupational Exposure to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons During Diesel Combustion

Identification and determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Diesel exhaust in the working environment and assessment of workers’ occupational exposure to these suspected human carcinogens were the aim of this experimental investigation.

The range of exposure factors calculated on the basis of 9 individual PAH concentrations determined in personal air samples shows that time-averaged concentration of these compounds did not exceed the Polish Maximum Admissible Concentration (MAC) value for PAHs, that is, 2 μg·m^–3. The highest concentrations of PAHs were determined in the breathing zone of forklift operators. The maximum exposure factor was 0.427 μg·m^–3 (about 1/4 of MAC).     

A System for Measuring Vertical Concentration Profiles of Gaseous Pollutants,Using Carbon Dioxide as a Case Study

An electronically-controlled sampling system, characterised by its organ pipe design, has been developed for sampling air sequentially, at different heights within the breathing zone. Data are automatically logged at the different receptor levels, for the determination of the average vertical concentration profile of gaseous pollutants. The system has been coupled to a carbon dioxide monitor and used in a brief study of the spatial and temporal variation of indoor carbon dioxide concentration. The system can easily be extended for different heights or modified for use with other types of gas monitor. The results of a trial run, which was carried out in a coffee room, are presented and applications of the Organ Pipe Sequential Sampling (OPSS) system are discussed.
