Abstract

Human volunteers were exposed to carbon monoxide at concentrations of < 1, 25, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000 ppm for periods of one-half to 24 hours. No untoward effects were observed in sedentary males exposed to 100 ppm for eight hours. Exposures producing carboxyhemoglobin saturations greater than 15% to 20% resulted in delayed headaches, changes in the visual evoked response, and impairment of manual coordination.
