| Authors: | Kulkarni CM, Mahesh H Karigoudar Manjunatha Aithala |
| Keywords: | Sawmill workers are exposed to wood dust particles of different sizes, and they cause different respiratory effects depending on the size,physical, and chemical nature of the dust particle and also it is related to the duration of exposure |

| Abstract: | Many studies are done in concern with respiratory effects of wood dust exposure and its toxicity on sawmill workers. Only few studieshave been done regarding measurement of particle size. Hence, this study has been undertaken. To measure the size of wood dust particle of sawmillsto which the workers are exposed to and also to study significance to the duration of exposure to different sizes of wood dust and effect on long-termexposure.Methods: Random samples collected from three different places of different sawmills where there is maximum production and exposure of wooddust |
