Master's Program in Occupational Health Sciences Safety and Hygiene, ENMH Instituto Politécnico Nacional (Mr Quintal-Méndez, Dr López-Hernández, Dr Sánchez-Monroy); Molecular Biomedicine Laboratory I, ENMH Instituto Politécnico Nacional (Dr Sánchez-Monroy), Department of Research of the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases (Dr Soledad), Mexico City, Mexico.
Objective: To evaluate the pulmonary alterations in workers from a dental prosthesis laboratory and explore dust and bacterial dissemination generated in the laboratory.
Methods: Spirometry and computerized axial tomography were performed on 67 workers. Dust in workplace air was determined using the filtration-gravimetric method, and bacterial detection was explored using 16S rDNA gene sequencing.
