Biomarkers of nasal inflammation in wood-surface coating industry workers.

Upper airway symptoms in workers employed in the manufacture of wood products using ultraviolet radiation curing or acid curing of surface coating have been reported. In this study, workers were divided into groups according to exposure: (1) UV-surface coating line, (2) acid curing surface coating line, (3) finishing processes of UV-cured acrylate coated products, (4) finishing processes of of both UV- and acid cured coated wood products, and (5) control group. The workers were examined with nasal lavage in order to investigate inflammatory signs (ECP, tryptase, albumin and microscopy with cell differential counting). UV-line workers and finishers had significantly increased levels of ECP in nasal lavage. There was a positive correlation between exposure time and ECP and albumin levels. Workers with general nasal complaints and atopics had increased levels of ECP. In this study there were findings indicating an inflammatory process in the nasal mucosa in workers exposed to UV radiation curing multifunctional acrylate coatings. The findings indicate an unspecific inflammation and, therefore, a correlation between occupational exposure to acrylate coatings and nasal inflammation seems probable.

Heck reactions of steroidal alkenyl iodides.

Heck reactions of some steroid derivatives possessing iodo-alkenyl moiety (17-iodo-androst-16-ene, 1, 17-iodo-4-aza-4-methyl-androst-16-en-3-one, 2, 17-iodo-4-aza-androst-16-en-3-one, 3) were carried out in the presence of palladium catalysts using various olefins (methyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, allyl alcohol and allyl acetate) as coupling partners. With methyl acrylate, a side reaction was observed: the coupling product underwent a Diels-Alder reaction with the excess of methyl acrylate resulting in a six-membered carbocyclic E-ring. Reaction conditions of the synthesis of the Heck-product were optimized. Although the coupling with allyl alcohol led to the formation of 21-formyl-16-pregnene derivatives, the synthesis of the corresponding steroidal unsaturated alcohol could be achieved only via hydrolysis of the coupling product of the alkenyl iodide with allyl acetate.
