- Gasoline exposure increases oxidative stress due to free radicals, potentially leading to chronic diseases like cancer, especially in developing countries with inadequate safety measures.
- A study compared plasma total antioxidant status (TAS) between 90 gasoline dispensers and 90 matched controls, finding significantly lower TAS levels in the exposed group.
- The results suggest that gasoline dispensers are at higher risk for chronic diseases related to oxidative stress, highlighting the need for antioxidant supplements and better regulations for safety.
