Trichloroethylene exposure is risky
Trichloroethylene (TCE), is a chemical used for degreasing aviation components and machines could be linked to PD. It has been found in several consumer products (drycleaning chemical), industrial products and medicines as well. Prolong exposure to TCE is also linked to kidney cancer. This chemical can also cause water contamination and indoor air population. TCE can be avoided. In some regions, it is banned. The soil in the region still holds TCE and can re-contaminate water. It takes decades before the symptoms show up.
Following are several products that may contain TCE:
