Article Synopsis
- - Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is a toxic gas that workers in oil refineries often inhale, potentially affecting their health, although the long-term impact of low-level exposure is not well understood.
- - A study involving 80 participants, including 40 oil refinery workers and 40 controls, measured urinary levels of HS-related metabolites, finding that DMSO was present in all samples, but the other metabolite TMS showed no significant difference between groups.
- - The research indicated that while DMSO levels were higher in workers exposed to HS, the metabolites measured may not be sensitive enough to accurately reflect the low levels of HS inhalation in an occupational setting.
