IMMEDIATE FATALITIES CAN OCCUR AS A RESULT OF SUFFOCATION, DELAYED FATALITIES CAN OCCUR AS A RESULT OF PULMONARY EDEMA (FLUID IN THE LUNGS). FOR THIS REASON, REST AND IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AFTER INHALATION IS IMPORTANT, PERSONS UITH KNOWN CARDIOVASCULAR OR LUNG PROBLEMS SHOULD NUT RISK CHLORINE EXPOSURE. STUDIES HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED EXPOSING HUMAN VOLUNTEERS TO AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS OF CHLORINE BETWEEN 0.5 AND 2 PPM FOR UP TO 8 HOURS, IN THESE STUDIES, EIGHT-HOUR EXPOSURES TO 1 PPM PRODUCED TRANSIENTCHANGES IN PULMONARY FUNCTION AND INCREASED SUBJECTIVE IRRITATION. EIGHT-HOUR EXPOSURES AT 0,5 F'Pm PRODUCED NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN PULMONARY FUNCTION AND LESS SEVERE SUBJECTIVE IRRITATION, CHRONIC; REPEATED EXPOSURES CAN RESULT IN A LOSS OF ABILITY TO DETECT THE ODOR OF CHLORINE, LONG-TERM EXPOSURES MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO TEETH AND INFLAMMATION OR ULCERATION OF THE NASAL PASSAGES, A STUDY WAS CONDUCTED ON DIAPHRAGM CELL WORKERS AT 25 PLANTS MANUFACTURING CHLORINE IN NORTH AMERICA WHERE EXPOSURES RANGED FROM 0,006 PPM TO 1.42 PPM WITH A MEAN OF 0,146 PPM. THE STUDY FOUND THAT THESE CHLORINE WORKERS WERE NOT AFFECTED IN ANY MEASURABLE WAY BY YEARS OF EXPOSURE TO LOU LEVELS OF CHLORINE.
