Le terme «Sick Building Syndrome»(SBS ou Syndrome des Bâtiments Malades), utilisé depuis les années 1970, recouvre une symptomatologie complexe, non spécifique, atypique et indiscutablement liée à l'occupation des locaux. Sa définition très large traduit bien le caractère multifactoriel du problème, qui touche entre 10 et 30% des occupants d’un bâtiment malsain ou «malade». Les facteurs associés au SBS sont multiples : ambiants(chimiques, biologiques, climatiques, environnementaux), personnels, sociaux, organisationnels. Les symptômes les plus fréquemment observés sont :irritation et obstruction nasale; sécheresse et irritation de la muqueuse des yeux, de la gorge, de la peau; manifestations générales(migraine, léthargie, état de fatigue conduisant à un manque de concentration). Des nausées, un changement dans la perception des odeurs et du goût, toux et sifflements respiratoires sont parfois également signalés. Les plaintes sont essentiellement d’inconfort et les symptômes ne sont pas liés à une menace grave pour la santé physiologique, du moins à court terme. 4, record 9, French, - syndrome%20des%20b%C3%A2timents%20malsains

Immeuble, tour, édifice «à bureaux» sont des spécifiques : ce syndrome se rencontre aussi dans des milieux qui ne sont pas des bureaux, comme par exemple les hôpitaux. Cependant, comme ce syndrome est la plupart du temps relié aux immeubles à bureaux, ces termes recouvrent, par le fait même, parfaitement bien la notion. Le terme plus général «bâtiment» est plus approprié que celui d’«édifice» ce dernier possédant une connotation de construction importante, de grandes dimensions, et, souvent, dont les qualités architecturales sont remarquables.

El Síndrome del Edificio Enfermo (SEE), se conoce también como Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). La Organización Mundial de la Salud lo ha definido como un conjunto de enfermedades originadas o estimuladas por la contaminación del aire en estos espacios cerrados. Es un conjunto de molestias y enfermedades originadas en la mala ventilación, la descompensación de temperaturas, las cargas iónicas y electromagnéticas, las partículas en suspensión, los gases y vapores de origen químico y los bioaerosoles, entre otros agentes causales identificados. El tipo de malestares que producen y estimulan estas situaciones es variado: jaquecas, náuseas, mareos, resfriados persistentes, irritaciones de las vías respiratorias, piel y ojos, etc. Entre estos malestares, las alergias ocupan un papel importante. 1, record 9, Spanish, - s%C3%ADndrome%20del%20edificio%20enfermo

Oleoresin capsicum (OC) is an oily extract of pepper plants of the genus "Capsicum." ... It is used as a spice in salsa, chili, curries, and hot sauces; as a pharmacologic agent in topical anesthetic and analgesic creams; and as the principal active ingredient in OC spray, or "pepper spray," used by police and others as an antipersonnel agent. OC extract consists of a complex mixture of fat soluble phenols known as capsaicinoids; capsaicin (trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) and dihydrocapsaicin, the most potent homologues, make up 80-90% of the total. Capsaicinoid content determines the "hotness" of the extract. 3, record 10, English, - Capsicum%20oleoresin

In the early 1980's Zarc International, Inc. introduced a proprietary "capsicum pepper technology" to be used as a safe and effective non-lethal weapon by military and law enforcement. "Capsicums" are chili peppers which occur in many varieties that range from mild to hot. Capsicum encompasses twenty species and some 300 different varieties of pepper plants.

L'oléorésine de «Capsicum» est un mélange huileux de plus de 100 composés obtenu par l'extraction des fruits mûrs et séchés de piments forts issus des plantes du genre «Capsicum»(habituellement les espèces suivantes :«Capsicum annuum» et «Capsicum frutescens»). La capsaïcine est le principal constituant isolé de l'oléorésine de «Capsicum», la capsaïcine représente environ 70 % de la totalité du mélange suivi par la dihydrocapsaïcine(~20 %), la norhydrocapsaïcine(~ 7 %), l'homocapsaïcine(~ 1 %) et la monodihydrocapsaïcine(~ 1 %). La capsaïcine est particulièrement reconnue pour ses propriétés irritantes. De plus, dépendamment de la variété de piments forts, l'oléorésine de «Capsicum» contiendra de 0, 001 à 1, 0 % de capsaïcinoïdes(masse sèche). Ainsi, une exposition à un aérosol d’oléorésine de «Capsicum» produira chez les individus de l'irritation, une sensation de brûlure et de la douleur aux yeux, aux voies respiratoires et sur la peau non protégée. 8, record 10, French, - ol%C3%A9or%C3%A9sine%20de%20Capsicum
