Abstract

The Hoffman-TILT Pilot Study team performed EHCs for 50 study participants who reported symptoms related to chemical intolerance (CI). EHCs included a series of surveys, Indoor Air Quality assessments, and collection of biological samples. Preliminary data showed elevated formaldehyde levels above advisory limits. Findings from a severely “TILTed” participant living in a house where multiple volatile organic compounds, including formaldehyde, were identified will be discussed.
