Estimating the carcinogenic potential of exposure to diesel-engine exhaust particulates
(DEPs) is problematic. In rats, high concentrations of DEPs (> 1,000 microg/m (3)) inhaled …

Chronic inhalation of diesel exhaust (DE) causes lung tumors in rats; epidemiologic studies
suggest that DE may be a potential human carcinogen. We compared the DE unit risks for …

A retrospective cohort study of 55,407 US railroad workers has been called the most
definitive study linking exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) with lung cancer in humans …

The mutagenicity of organic solvent extracts from diesel exhaust particulate (DEP), first
noted more than 55 years ago, initiated an avalanche of diesel exhaust (DE) health effects …

Quantitative estimates of lung cancer risk from exposure to diesel engine emissions were
developed using data from three chronic bioassays with Fischer 344 rats. Human target …

While the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified diesel exhaust
(DE) as a “probable” carcinogen in 1989 based primarily on “sufficient” animal data, other …

Male and femal F344 rats were exposed 7 hr/day, 5 day/week for up to 30 months to
automotive diesel engine exhaust at soot concentrations of 0.35, 3.5, or 7.0 mg/m 3 or were …

An analysis of literature data on effects of both diesel exhaust and of particle overload shows
that the experimentally induced lung tumors in rats after diesel exposure may be explained …

Vermeulen et al.(2014) published a metaanalysis of the risk of lung cancer from exposure to
diesel exhaust using data from three case–control studies—two of workers in the trucking …

Several quantitative risk assessment models have been published for occupational and
environmental exposures to diesel exhaust particles (DEP). These risk assessment models …
