title: N-mononitrosopiperazine in urine after occupational exposure to piperazine.
abstract: We have shown previously that intake of the drug piperazine can result in the endogenous formation of N-mononitrosopiperazine (NPZ; Bellander et al., 1985). The present investigation deals with the possibility of endogenous formation of NPZ due to occupational exposure to piperazine in a chemical plant.
