Es sollte die Wirkung einer arbeitsplatzbezogenen extrem niederfrequentenMagnetfeld-Exposition auf den 6-Sulphatoxymelatonin-Gehalt (6-OHMS) bei verschiedenen Arbeitern (aus der Kleider-Produktion, der örtlichen Stadtwerke, der Grundschule, der technischen Industrie und aus anderen Unternehmen) untersucht werden.
Hintergrund/weitere Details
6-OHMS in morgendlichen Urin-Proben ist ein Indikator für die nächtliche Melatonin-Produktion. Urin wurde zwei Mal gesammelt, freitags und am darauffolgenden Montag (Unterbrechung der beruflichen Exposition). Die Exposition wurde über drei komplette Wochen-Arbeitsschichten bei 59 Arbeitern mit Hilfe von persönlichen Expositions-Messgeräten beobachtet. Die Arbeiter wurden in "gering exponiert" (< oder = 0.2 µT) oder "höher exponiert" (> 0.2 µT) eingestuft.
kontinuierlich über 3 komplette Wochen-Arbeitsschichten
Zusatzinfo
Occupational exposure
Expositionsaufbau
Aufbau
The meters were worn on the hip in a belted pouch. During the sleep, subjects were instructed to leave the meter beside the bed, close to the body, but not near electrical and electronic devices.
Zusatzinfo
59 workers, 26 men and 33 women, engaged in different occupations were included in the study: 26 in clothing production, 14 in local utility company, 6 primary school teachers, 5 in engineering industry and a further 8 in other occupations. Morning urine samples were collected twice: 1) on Friday after 4 days of occupational exposure or 2) on Monday after 2 days of no occupational exposure.
