REF: source for occupational risks in pregnancy: msg#00438education.libraries.medlib
Medlibbers, My last search on breast MRI for high risk women without genetic/familial risk is still in the airwaves, but here is a new one: Any risks for a pregnant women in the printing business? My patron assumes this would be inhalation of chemicals below. petroleum naphtha CAS # 64742-47-8 or 64742-95-6 dipropylene glycol methyl ether CAS#34590-94-8 p-mentha-1-8-diene CAS # 5989-27-5 (comes up as d-Limonene on TOXNET) I haven't really been able to make the connection with work as a printer, as these chemicals are used in a lot of places. Tried PubMed, TOXNET, though I'm not that great at it, specifically DART, and Google. Also have Zenz Occupational Medicine,3rd ed 1994, which does have a section on "glycol ethers" in the Reproductive Toxicology chapter. If anyone has a textbook, my patron would be happy with some sort of statement about reproductive risks for women printers. Other ideas welcome... Thanks!
