Abstract:This paper presents the results of an environmental investigation in a plastic-ware industry using RF sealers. Environmental measurements have demonstrated the presence of strong electric fields the intensity of which: reaches significant levels from the health-protection point of view only in proximity to the applicators; often exceeds the maximal levels allowed by all standards (including the most permissive) for short duration exposures, especially in the region of the hands. Results of a cross-sectional study on the health of 63 female workers are related to the observed RF exposure. A statistically significant correlation was found to exist between RF exposure and some minor health effects--eye irritation, upper limb paresthesias, and vitreous body disorganization.
