Kyoto Industrial Health Association -Prevalence of water-based solvent preparations in 122 factories of various types (e.g., painting, printing, etc.) in the city of Kyoto was investigated by interview in 1995. The survey showed that water-based solvent preparations were used in 20% of the factories studied and that the leading organic solvent components in water-based solvent preparations were methyl, ethyl and isopropyl alcohols, among which the use of isopropyl alcohol was the most common. Among glycol derivatives, 2-butoxyethanol was the most frequently used. ( J Occup Health 1996; 38: 124-127 )
