Health effects associated with contaminated aeroplane cabin air
Aerotoxic syndrome relates to ill-health effects associated with breathing contaminated air in an airliner cabin.[1] Researchers have associated aerotoxic syndrome with exposure to substances such as engine oil and hydraulic fluid.[2][3] Although researchers have identified correlations between the aircraft occupational environment and symptoms of aerotoxic syndrome,[4] this condition is not an established medical diagnosis[5][6] because the incidence and aetiology of the condition are still under debate.[7]
