 gulf-oil-spillDevastating After Effects of the BP Oil Spill
The BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is having a very large effect on the environment and the health of many individuals living and working in the gulf coast region. The environmental toxins, particularly volatile solvents emitted from oil and dispersant fumes, could provide a huge negatively impact the health of many people. In her blog, Dr. Eve Bralley discusses the impact of this disaster and how using the Volatile Solvents Profile can help determine your exposure levels.
