Although scarce information exists regarding firefighters’ exposure to PAHs, there is a great gap of knowledge regarding this topic. Thus the aim of this study was to assess firefighters’ personal exposure to PAHs during regular work shifts at fire stations, with emphasis on carcinogenic compounds and potential heath risks.engPolycyclic Aromatic HydrocarbonsFirefightersOccupational RisksPortuguese Fire StationsAr e Saúde OcupacionalPortugalFirefighters’ occupational exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at Portuguese fire stationsconference object
