In industry, the values ofneurotoxic substances' emission to air have been determined to be really high.In addition, these substances' relation to the diseases, like secondaryhypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus are being researched. Also, evaluationsregarding the synergistic effects of toxic substances if used together arebeing made.
