摘要
背景:木尘是由锯木厂加工木材产生的木屑制成的,吸入后会成为潜在的健康问题。本研究评估了锯木厂木材加工产生的木尘颗粒物质的浓度。方法:2013年1月在尼日利亚奥松州84家锯木厂进行描述性横断面研究。用GT-321颗粒计数器测量0.5 μm、1 μm和5 μm的总悬浮颗粒物样品。在工作时间内,每隔1小时从每个锯木厂地点采集2个样本。还对84个焊工车间进行了空气采样以比较结果。在10家锯木厂进行了一次实地调查,以评估个人防护装备的使用情况。使用Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 16对数据进行分析。P值设为
Wood dust particles: Environmental pollutant in Nigerian sawmill industries
Background: Wood dust is made of wood shavings from machining wood in sawmills and it becomes potential health problem when inhaled. This study assesses concentration of wood dust particulate matter resulting from wood processing in sawmills. Methods: It is a descriptive cross-sectional study carried out in 84 sawmills in Osun State, Nigeria in January, 2013. Samples of total suspended particulate matter of sizes 0.5 μm, 1 μm, and 5 μm were measured with GT-321 Particle Counter. Two samples were taken at 1 h interval from each sawmill sites during work hours. Air sampling was also done in 84 welder workshops to compare results. A walk through survey was conducted in 10 sawmills to assess the usage of personal protective equipment (PPE). Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 16. P value was set at
