Separate monographs are presented for beryllium and beryllium compounds, cadmium and cadmium, compounds, and mercury and inorganic and methylmercury compounds. Because several metallic salts and pigments are used in the manufacture and coloring of certain glass products, the book also evaluates the carcinogenic risk posed by exposures in the glass manufacturing industry. More than 1200 references to the recent literature are included.

Occupational exposures in printing processes were classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans. Printing inks could not be classified.
