Show Notes
In this episode, the first of a two-part series, guest Jen Hines, Consultant Occupational Hygienist and Lecturer at the University of Wollongong joins us to discuss diesel particulate matter with host Mark Reggers. Diesel particulate matter is the particle substance within diesel exhaust. It is a carcinogenic combination of particulates and gases that are detrimental to one's health. Occupational exposure can present itself in the form of short term acute effects such as eye and respiratory irritation through to long term chronic conditions like heart and lung disease.
