+ Special feature: the complete list of MAK- and BAT values on a CD-ROM included in the book! The CD-ROM allows easy searches e. g. for substance names or CAS numbers.
+ MAK values (Maximum Concentrations at the Workplace) and BAT values (Biological Tolerance Values) promote the protection of health at the workplace. They are an efficient indicator for the toxic potential of chemical compounds. This book contains a list of scientifically recommended threshold limit values for about 1000 chemical compounds. Carcinogens, germ cell mutagens, embryotoxicants, sensitizing substances and those potentially bearing a risk to pregnancy are treated separately.
+ Of particular value are the lists of substances which were reviewed in 2006/2007 and substances being examined for the establishment of MAK and BAT values in coming years.

The Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) is the central, self-governing research organisation that promotes research at universities and other publicly financed research institutions in Germany.
Through its commissions, the DFG provides scientific advice for politics and administration. The about 100 experts of the internationally acknowledged DFG-Senate Commission on the Investigation of Health Hazards of Chemical Compounds in the Work Area each year compile the List of MAK and BAT Values to reflect the latest scientific knowledge in occupational health and safety.

Originalbroschur. Zustand: Sehr gut. 246, XXIV S. plus CD-ROM. Einband leicht berieben. - The MAK value ("maximale Arbeitsplatz-Konzentration": maximum workplace concentration) is defined as the maximum concentration of a chemical substance (as gas, vapour or particulate matter) in the workplace air which generally does not have known adverse effects on the health of the employee nor cause unreasonable annoyance (e. g. by a nauseous odour) even when the person is repeatedly exposed during long periods, usually for 8 hours daily but assuming on average a 40-hour working week. As a rule, the MAK value is given as an average concentration for a period of up to one working day or shift. MAK values are established on the basis of the effects of chemical substances; when possible, practical aspects of the industrial processes and the resulting exposure patterns are also taken into account. Scientific criteria for the prevention of adverse effects on health are decisive, not technical and economic feasibility. For the establishment of a MAK value, the carcinogenicity (see Section III) the sensitizing effects (see Section IV) the contribution to systemic toxicity after percutaneous absorption (see Section VII) the risks during pregnancy (see Section VIII) the germ cell mutagenicity (see Section IX) of a substance are evaluated and the substance classified or designated accordingly.
