As jet fuel is a common occupational exposure among military and civilian populations, this study was conducted to characterize jet fuel (JP8) exposure among active duty U.S. Air Force personnel. Personnel (n = 24) were divided a priori into high, moderate, and low exposure groups. ...
Human exposure to the jet fuel, JP-8. Aviat Space Environ Med 2004; 75:4959. Introduction: This study investigates anecdotal reports that have suggested adverse health effects associated with acute or chronic exposure to jet fuel. Methods: JP-8 exposure during the course of the study day was...
This study used the postural stability technique to investigate the neurological effects of cumulative low-level exposure to raw JP-8 jet fuel vapor on aircraft maintenance personnel. All subjects performed two sets of four 30-second postural sway tests. The results of mean cumulative exposure levels...
Airport personnel are at risk of occupational exposure to jet engine emissions, which similarly to diesel exhaust emissions include volatile organic compounds and particulate matter consisting of an inorganic carbon core with associated polycyclic aromat

In this paper we examine the results of neurocognitive performance assessments acquired repeatedly across a standard work week with AF personnel who, as a function of their specific job characteristics, had higher or lower levels of exposure to jet fuel. This study, known as the Occupational JP8 ...
Significantly, functional immune responses continued to deteriorate with each additional day of JP-8 exposure. Thus, low concentration JP-8 jet fuel exposures have significant effects on the immune system, these effects occur rapidly and these effects are cumulative over time. 展开 ...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potency of JP-8 jet fuel to enhance noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) using inhalation exposure to fuel and simultaneous exposure to either continuous or intermittent noise exposure over a 4-wk exposure period using both male and female Fischer ...
Several of the proteins were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting, and were found to relate to cell structure, cell proliferation, protein repair, and apoptosis. These data demonstrate the significant stress JP-8 jet fuel puts on lung epithelium. Furthermore, there was a decrease in α1-...
Objectives: We sought to examine the effects of occupational exposure to jet fuel on hearing in military workers. Methods: Noise-exposed subjects, with or ... Kaufman,Laura,R.,... - 《Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine》 被引量: 49发表: 2005年 Current aspects of hearing loss ...
