If HL (C03-A010) is involved, then exposure of the skin will produce an immediate burning sensation, which may be quickly followed by reddening of the skin (erythema). In addition to other latent effects, casualties exposed to HL may also develop signs of systemic arsenic toxicity including diarrhea, damage to the liver, kidneys, nervous system, and the brain. [Pg.154]

BAL is the standard treatment for poisoning by arsenic compounds and will alleviate some effects from exposure to arsenic vesicants. It may also decrease the severity of skin and eye lesions if applied topically within minutes after decontamination is complete (i.e., within 2-5 minutes postexposure). Additional chelating agents for the treatment of systemic arsenic toxicity include meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and 2,3-dimercapto-l-propanesulfonic acid (DMPS). [Pg.199]

The mechanisms of arsenical toxicity differ considerably among arsenic species, although signs of poisoning appear similar for all arsenicals (Woolson 1975 NRCC 1978 Pershagen and Vahter 1979 Eisler 1988, 1994 ATSDR 1992 Abernathy et al. 1997 SEGH 1998). [Pg.1484]

This chapter presents specific information with regard to the effects of environmental and occupational exposure to arsenic on inflammatory processes, the immune system, and host defense. While the focus is on the in vivo and in vitro effects of arsenic on host immune responses (e.g., immunotoxicity and hypersensitivity) and their relationship to clinically observed manifestations of arsenic toxicity (e.g., inflammation and skin cancer), information on the potential mechanisms through which arsenic may exert its biological effects is also provided.
