Title A name given to the resource <h2>Surveillance de l'asthme professionnel chez des travailleurs dans des secteurs à risque</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>Occupational asthma is the occupational respiratory disease most frequently recognized by the CSST. Sixty new cases are compensated annually, half of which are in young workers. In some industrial sectors, fewer than five years elapse between the start of exposure and the appearance of the first symptoms. To have a better understanding of this phenomenon, the researchers will evaluate instruments for measuring immunological and functional parameters for monitoring occupational asthma on three cohorts of workers. The targeted sectors are those where flour, laboratory animals and latex are found, which are among the main causal agents of Québec cases of occupational asthma. From this study, it will be possible to determine the incidence of specific immunological sensitization, of respiratory symptoms or occupational rhinoconjunctivitis, of bronchial hyperreactivity and occupational asthma in these groups at risk. Its results will promote better prevention of occupational asthma and its long-term sequellae, while increasing scientific knowledge about its natural history.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100279.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100279.html</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource <h2>Air Emission Sources</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>This online mapping tool is available in English. It is intended for students, community members, public health professionals, and environmental health specialists. It provides basic information related to State and County emission summaries for the top six air pollutants. Based on the latest National Emissions Inventory, the site uses charts and Google Earth files to answer a user’s questions. Users can look at overall emissions, emissions by type of industry, or emissions by largest polluter.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.epa.gov/air/emissions/where.htm" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.epa.gov/air/emissions/where.htm</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource <h2>Détermination d'un indice du maintien de la qualité de l'air lors de l'utilisation de moteur diesels</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>A significant proportion of the Québec work force is exposed to diesel exhaust. The particulate matter in such exhaust, particularly soot, may be a source of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Other major contaminants to which exposure may occur include unburnt heavy and light hydrocarbons, and combustion products such as nitrogen oxides, oxidized hydrocarbons, sulphur oxides, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. This project investigated the use of carbon dioxide as a proxy measure of the level of diesel exhaust contamination in bus garages and in staff rooms used by bus drivers.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_97.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_97.html</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
