Neurotoxic and neurobehavioral effects of organic solvents on the nervous system
Abstract
Organic solvents have been widely used in industry for decades, and there has been constant concern about their toxic effects on the central and peripheral nervous systems. In this chapter the effects are reviewed and particular attention is paid to the reported clinical effects of long-term exposure.
