Examining evidence for a protective occupational exposure limit for inhalable manganese dust below which there are no adverse subclinical nervous system effects

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the exposure-response relationship between the concentration of inhalable manganese dust and subclinical nervous system outcomes amongst workers in a South African manganese smelter with a view to identifying any exposure threshold below which adverse effects do not occur.
