    Notes: Sera of ninety-one workers with respiratory symptoms related to occupational exposure to toluene diisocyanate (TDI) were tested by a solid phase radioimmunoassay using polyvinyl plates, in an attempt to demonstrate specific IgG antibodies to a conjugate of TDI with human serum albumin (TDI-HSA). Different conjugates were prepared. In our radioimmunoassay a TDI-HSA 1600 (1600 μg TDI/ mg HSA), obtained at alkaline pH with borate buffer, was used; this conjugate was immunologically reactive and did not contain protein macro-aggregates.No difference in percent of binding of radiolabelled anti-human IgG to TDI-HSA coated on plastic plates was found between exposed workers (asthmatic and non-asthmatic) and fifteen normal subjects. This may suggest that either TDI-induced bronchial asthma is not mediated by IgG antibodies, or TDI-HSA conjugate is unsuitable to be detected by anti-isocyanate IgG.

    Notes: Three cases of bronchial asthma due to wood dust from Tanganyika anigré are reported. All patients were woodworkers and had symptoms of dyspnoea, cough and wheezing, and sometimes itchiness and rhinorrhoea, after exposure to Tanganyika aningré. The intradermal skin tests were positive for untigenic extract of Tanganyika aningré. In two patients the bronchial provocation test with the wood dust and with the soluble extract inhaled by aerosol was positive showing an immediate reaction; in the same patients bronchial hyperreactivity was also found. Atopy was present in one subject. No precipitins or specific IgE were found in patient sera by the immunodiffusion technique or by RAST.

    Notes: Summary We have performed a comparative analysis of two different fluorometric methods used to determine free erythrocyte protoporphyrin (FEP) blood concentration. The first method is based on an extractive procedure, whereas the second one involves the direct fluorometric analysis of whole blood. Our results show that the extractive procedure is probably the most reliable technique available for FEP determination, but it is not so suitable for mass screening, whereas the direct fluorometric determination of FEP blood concentration is probably less reliable, but sufficiently enough to be used for mass screening. We have furthermore investigated whether the FEP test could be used as a unique monitoring method for subclinical lead poisoning. Our findings indicate that FEP test can detect very early metabolic alterations, but it is not so suitable for determining lead absorption and should therefore be used in mass screening together with a dose indicator, such as blood lead concentration.
