pubmed-article:9530480 | pubmed:abstractText | In the Federal Republic of Germany limits for the chronic exposure to nitrous oxide and volatile anaesthetics have been prescribed by legislation. According to the technical rules for the handling of hazardous substances TRGS 402 it is legal to measure a single substance in a mixture of hazards, unless the behaviour of all substances is known. Studies about corresponding concentrations of nitrous oxide and volatile anaesthetics in anaesthetic working areas have not yet been carried out. | lld:pubmed |
