Acute mercury

A recently developed treatment foi acute mercury poisoning is the injection of a H sulfur compound BAL (British anti-lewisite). This compound, pro-... [Pg.569]

Following acute mercury vapor intoxication of two humans, it was found that, despite chelation therapy with multiple chelators (2,3-dimercaptopropanol [BAL] followed by 2,3-dimercaptosuccoinic acid [DMSA]), relatively high concentrations of mercury remained in the plasma for a very long time (Houeto et al. 1994). The authors suggested that this could be explained by the progressive release of mercury from red blood cells and tissues after oxidation. In a group of chloralkali workers exposed to metallic mercury vapor for 1-24 years (median, 10 years), a decrease in the mercury concentration (following... [Pg.208]

Treatment of acute mercury poisoning is by use of the dimercaprol chelating agents which leads to excretion via both bile and urine. Chronic exptisure is best treated with N-aceiyl-penicillamine. unless renal function is compromised. [Pg.31]

Human volunteers exhaled approximately 7-12% of a retained dose of mercury vapor within the first few days after exposure (Hursh etal. 1976, Sandborgh-Englund etal. 1998). Under normal circumstances, the excretion of Hg" " via sweat is negligible, but in the case of acute mercury vapor inhalation at toxic dosage, the proportion of mercury excreted in the sweat was of similar magnitude to that excreted renally (Lovejoy etal. 1973, EPA 1997). [Pg.964]
