The bulk of the book consists of 625 alphabetically arranged entries on individual compounds, with information on chemical formula, CAS number, 2003 ACGIH threshold limit values, physical properties, and sources and routes of exposure. Toxicological data is also included, with information on both acute and chronic effects related to known exposure levels. This fifth edition updates some 600 entries, and adds material on new compounds.
