DOI: 10.1002/bdr2.1417
Abstract: BACKGROUND To protect crewmember health, the U.S. Navy sets exposure limits for more than 200 components of submarine atmospheres. The addition of females to nuclear submarines required a reevaluation of these exposure limits, originally established… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jat.4307
Abstract: Frameworks for deriving occupational exposure limits (OELs) and OEL‐analogue values (such as derived‐no‐effect levels [DNELs]) in various regulatory areas in the EU and at national level in Germany were analysed. Reasons for differences between frameworks… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17435390.2016.1262920
Abstract: Abstract Background: The toxicological properties of manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) can be different from their bulk-material and uncertainty remains about the adverse health effects they may have on humans. Proposals for OELs have been put forward… read more here.
