摘要
Occupational agents are important in a significant number of respiratory diseases. More than 250 occupational substances have been reported to cause occupational asthma. Occupational allergens are the subset of agents causing occupational diseases through an IgE-mediated mechanism. These allergens may be classified as being of either high or low molecular weight. The more common occupational allergens and the industries at increased risk of exposing workers to these agents are discussed.
