title: [Occupational exposure to n-nitrosamine in the production of automobile tires].
abstract: Applying the method for determining nitrocompounds, based on gaz chromatography technique with nitro-phosphoric detector, N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodiethylamine, N-nitrosodibutylamine, N-nitrosotetrahydropyrrole were detected in the work environment of the plant under study (method of determining 0.2 micrograms/m3 for 1000 l/air). For qualitative purposes the data obtained were supported by mass spectrometry. Measurements of individual exposure were taken in 35 persons and stationary measurements were also applied. Among nitrosamines detected, N-nitrosodimethylamine (carcinogenic substance) occurred most commonly at working post, and its concentration was the highest (2.1-9.2 micrograms/m3).
