[Hygienic regulation of welding aerosols in air of workplace and pneumoconiosis in welders (review of literature)].
The authors represent review of literature on fibrogenic effects of welding aerosols and results of own clinical and epidemiologic studies concerning pneumoconiosis course in electric welders compared to other occupational groups. In conclusion, the authors necessitate more strict control over total concentration of welding aerosol solid component (WASC) in air of workplace and determination of MAC for WASC.
