[Subjective symptoms and blood findings in painters exposed to organic solvents].
Subjective symptoms and blood findings were studied in 16 construction workers and 30 vehicle repairmen using organic solvent and compared to 30 workers who were not exposed to organic solvents. A statistically significant increase was observed in the prevalence of subjective symptoms, serum phospholipid, lipoprotein fraction and IgE in construction workers and vehicle repairmen. A statistically significant decrease in neutrophils function was observed in construction workers.
