A cross-sectional multicenter european study has been carried out to evacuate the relations between exposure to low level of benzene and biological markers of internal dose (t,t-MA, S-PMA) and early biological effect (DNA-SSB). The research has shown significantly increased levels (adjusted for smoking habits) of the urinary excretion of t,t-MA, S-PMA and DNA-SSB in petrochemical workers (mean benzene level = 5,694 micrograms/m3) but not in filling station attendants, traffic police officers, and bus drivers compared to referent workers. Dose-response relations were detected between benzene air levels, t,t-MA, S-PMA and DNA-SSB in petrochemical workers, with significantly increased levels of DNA-SSB detected for benzene exposure levels in the range 391-1,800 micrograms/m3 (0.12-0.58 ppm).
