Abstract
Comprehensive employee health examinations along with workplace area and personal monitoring were conducted to evaluate potential exposure to 2-nitropropane. The employee cross section included in the study consisted of nearly all workers at the plant. The entire workforce was represented, including those who did not have contact with 2-nitropropane. No adverse health effects were found which could be connected with work experience. Body systems evaluated included: lungs, liver, kidney, blood, skin and cardiovascular. Work area levels at specific locations sometimes exceeded 25 ppm, but personal time-weighted average levels generally were below 25 ppm.
