Abstract

Exposure to oil and oil products either directly or indirectly causes severe health issues in humans, and the effects are principally dependent on the nature of contact with the oil spill. Direct exposures include breathing contaminated air (volatile fractions which are emitted as gases) and direct contact with the skin (while walking in contaminated areas). Indirect exposures to oil are due to bathing in contaminated water and eating contaminated food. Human health is badly affected by the contamination of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs), and the effects depend largely on the type of site (land, river, and ocean) of oil spilled. Other contributing factors that affect the human health upon oil exposure include the kind and extent of exposure. Cleaning workers at the oil spill site are at greater risk. Health disorders include skin and eye irritation, breathing and neurologic problems, and stress. TPHs have a strong impact on mental health and induce physical/physiological effects, and they are potentially toxic to genetic, immune, and endocrine systems. Even though the long-term effects of TPHs in humans are not fully understood yet, certain symptoms may persist for some years of postexposure period. Thus, health protection in TPHs-exposed individuals is a matter of serious concern. Health risk assessments have the greatest impact in enabling the detection of any potential exposure-related harmful effects either at the time of exposure or for prolonged periods following the exposure. In this direction, the present chapter provides comprehensive insights into understanding the effects of TPHs on human health.
