Combined exposures to hydrogen cyanide and carbon monoxide in army operations : initial report /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

In response to a request from the U.S. Army, a committee convened by the National Research Council (NRC) conducted the first in a sequence of studies evaluating the combined health effects of low-level exposure to two chemicals Army personnel are likely to be exposed to in firing tank weapons. The A...
