179-180. It has been found that workers exposed to cereal grain dusts may experience acute mild respiratory distress. An attempt has been made to explain this observation by examining the pharmacological activity of aqueous extracts of several cereal dusts from the holds of cargo ships. Histamine, but no other active agent, was found in the samples. It is unlikely that the concentration of histamine in these dusts is sufficient to cause respiratory distress in dockers unloading cereal grain cargoes.
179 - 180. 已发现接触谷物粉尘的工人可能会出现急性轻度呼吸窘迫。已尝试通过检测货船舱内几种谷物粉尘水提取物的药理活性来解释这一观察结果。在样本中发现了组胺,但未发现其他活性剂。这些粉尘中组胺的浓度不太可能足以导致卸载谷物货物的码头工人出现呼吸窘迫。
