Giroux D, Lapointe G, Baril M. Toxicological index and the presence in the
workplace of chemical hazards for workers who breastfeed infants, American

This may be hard to find. As part of preparing for a presentation on the
employed breastfeeding mother I got this reference off a computer search at
the National Library of Medicine in Bethesda, MD. The actual hard copy
publication was not available that day so I could not get a copy of the
article. The library will copy and mail articles for a fee.  National Library
of Medicine phone #(301) 496-6095. Would be interesting to do an med-line
search of breastfeeding and toxicology, they have lots of on-line resources:
