This third edition of Radio-Frequency and Microwave Radiation Guide provides the most current and authoritative information on the physical characteristics of radio-frequency radiation (RF) and microwave radiation, its interactions with matter, and biological and environmental effects. Current standards and guidelines are discussed, as are instruments and controls. A handy glossary provides definitions of important terms, and an appendix presents a list of problems industrial hygenists and other health professionals may encounter.
Presenting the only textbook available today that covers all of the critical elements of industrial hygiene ó conceptual information, computational coverage, case studies, and sample problems and exercises ó in one volume. Organized around the basic rubrics of industrial hygiene, this book helps students to think like industrial hygienists while offering the latest techniques for practicing professionals. Applications and Computational Elements of Industrial Hygiene is the most complete reference available on IH, and is also an ideal study aid for exam preparation. This is the first and only textbook that includes all critical computations for each concept covered. Each chapter discusses a...
Proceedings of a workshop to discuss the utility & applicability of data derived from in-vitro mechanistic studies & predictions based on physical theory for characterizing potential human hazards associated with exposure to power line frequency electric & magnetic fields (EMF). Discussions of EMF effects covered 10 research areas under 3 major categories: biophysical mechanisms; cellular growth, differentiation, & control of gene expression; & enzymes, intracellular pathways, & signal transduction. Includes sessions on the roles of in vitro assays & physical theory in understanding & quantifying human health risk.
Featuring the improved format used in the 5th edition, this updated set presents, in logical groupings, comprehensive toxicological data for industrial compounds, including CAS numbers, physical and chemical properties, exposure limits, and biological tolerance values for occupational exposures, making it essential for toxicologists and industrial hygienists. This edition has about 40% new authors who have brought a new and international perspective to interpreting industrial toxicology, and discusses new subjects such as nanotechnology, flavorings and the food industry, reactive chemical control to comprehensive chemical policy, metalworking fluids, and pharmaceuticals.
This book surveys the lives and experiences of hundreds of thousands of eighteenth-century non-elite Londoners in the evolution of the modern world.
Providing a concise, yet comprehensive, reference on all aspects of industrial exposures and toxicants; this book aids toxicologists, industrial hygienists, and occupational physicians to investigate workplace health problems. • Updates and expands coverage with new chapters covering regulatory toxicology, toxicity testing, physical hazards, high production volume (HPV) chemicals, and workplace drug use • Includes information on occupational and environmental sources of exposure, mammalian toxicology, industrial hygiene, medical management and ecotoxicology • Retains a succinct chapter format that has become the hallmark for the previous editions • Distils a vast amount of information into one resource for both academics and professionals
Tailored especially for the working health professional, Radio Frequency and ELF Electrogmagnetic Energies is a practical guide to understanding, evaluating, and controlling the human health effects of radio-frequency (RF) and extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields. Providing a perfect blend of applied information and theory, you'll find all you need to know about radiation safety, from the basic physics to how to set up a safety program. This book brings you cutting-edge discussions of exposure limits, monitoring instrumentation, new measurements required by human exposure standards, induced currents and contact currents, and the latest data on biological effects.
