The exposures and health effects of benzene, toluene and naphthalene for Chinese chefs in multiple cooking styles of kitchens

Lei Huang et al.

Summary: Commercial cooking poses higher health risks due to greater intensity of volatile organic chemical pollutants compared to home cooking. This study highlights the importance of monitoring aromatic hydrocarbons in kitchens and investigating potential health effects on occupational exposed chefs. Improving ventilation in kitchens is also crucial to reduce health risks.
