Summary

Dermal transfer efficiency has been defined as the amount of material that moves from one surface to another following contact. The investigators propose to measure dermal transfer efficiency for the following pathways: (1) object to skin, (2) skin to skin, (3) skin to mouth, (4) clothing to skin, (5) gloves to skin, and (6) air to skin. First, the quantitative dermal transfer will be measured for the two selected test substances (lead, Tinopal) for each of these six pathways. The relative quantities of dermal transfer will also then be compared between the different transfer pathways (e.g., is skin to skin transfer greater or less than clothing to skin transfer?). And second, the pattern of transfer will be characterized semi-quantitatively (e.g., does dermal transfer occur consistently and evenly to the skin from different reservoirs?).

Interventions

OTHER

Participants for Surface Skin Sampling

Skin wipe samples will be collected to quantify the amount of the test substances transferred to and from the surface of the participants' skin.

OTHER

Elemental metallic lead

Consumer product fishing tackle made of elemental lead will be handled by the participants.

OTHER

Tinopal

Tinopal, a fluorescent tracer, will be handled by the participants.
