Questionnaire information will be collected concurrently to augment test interpretation, adjust for potential confounders and covariates during regression analysis, correlate specific jobs and job activities with exposure measurements, and for validation purposes. Findings from this study will clarify if the adverse reproductive effects observed in animal studies are also present in acrylamide-exposed male workers, and if preclinical neurobehavioral deficits are present at acrylamide doses currently considered to be within safe limits.

The mission of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is to promote safety and health at work for all people through research and prevention. Consistent with this mission, NIOSH is undertaking a study of the reproductive and neurobehavioral effects of occupational exposure to acrylamide. Male acrylamide workers and control workers (N = 100 per group) will be recruited from manufacturing, end-user, and non-exposed settings. Exposure will be characterized by acrylamide hemoglobin, adduct and urinary metabolite levels, ambient area, personal air, and dermal sampling. Reproductive effects will be evaluated by examining semen quality, sperm ESTIMATE OF ANNUALIZED BURDEN TABLE Number of respondents Survey questionnaires Medical & Reproductive History Questionnaire ...........................................................................
