bronchial reactivity was measured before work among non-smoking female and male workers from carding, spinning, warping and weaving areas in a cotton mill. airport baggage loaders were used as controls. the amount of dust and endotoxin was measured at the different workplaces. statistically significant decreases in fev//1 were found between groups of cotton workers at different work sites after administration of the highest accumulated methacholine dose used (1.25 mg). a relationship was found between decreases in fev//1 after methacholine challenge and airborne endotoxin levels but not for dust.
