Abstract

When discussing hygienic relevance of an exposure to diesel engine exhaust for health, the characteristic diesel soot is of special interest. Studies on long-term inhalation proved that diesel exhaust in high concentrations causes lung cancer in animals. For man, there is not yet evidence of a carcinogenic effect, therefore a risk assessment is problematic. In the interests of preventive health protection, emission of particulate matter from diesel engines should be reduced as far as possible.
