Cadmium INDEX

A negative correlation was found between PbB and systolic pressure in Belgian men in the Cadmibel study (a cross-sectional population study of the health effects of environmental exposure to cadmium) (Staessen et al. 1991). In this study, blood pressure and urinary cation (positive ions found in the urine, such as sodium, potassium, and calcium) concentration data were obtained from 963 men and 1,019 women multiple stepwise regression analyses were conducted adjusting for age, body mass index, pulse... 

Stranski-Krastanov growth has been documented for copper on Au(lll) [101, 102], Pt(100) and Pt(lll) [103], for silver on Au(lll) [104, 105], for cadmium on Cu(lll) [106] and for lead on Ag(100) and Ag(lll) [107-109]. In all of these examples, an active metal is deposited onto a low-index plane of a more noble metal. Since the substrate does not undergo electrochemical transformations at the deposition potential, a reproducible surface can be presented to the solution. At the same time, the substrate metal must be carefully prepared and characterized so that the nucleation and growth mechanisms can be clearly identified, and information can be obtained by variation of the density of surface features, including steps, defects and dislocations.

Cadmium yellow consists of pure cadmium sulfide (golden yellow color) or mixed crystals of zinc and cadmium sulfide [8048-07-5], (Cd, Zn)S, in which up to one-third of the cadmium can be replaced by zinc. The density of this pigment is 4.5-4.8 g/cm3 and its refractive index is 2.4-2.5. The prevalent parcticle size is approx. 0.2 pm with cubic to spheroidal habits. Cadmium yellow is practically insoluble in water and alkali, and of low solubility in dilate mineral acid. It dissolves in concentrated mineral acid with generation of hydrogen sulfide. 

Cadmium red consists of cadmium sulfoselenide [12656-57-4], [58339-34-7], Cd(S,Se), and is formed when sulfur is replaced by selenium in the cadmium sulfide lattice. With increasing selenium content, the color changes to orange, red, and finally dark red. The density of these pigments increases correspondingly from 4.6 to 5.6 g/cm3 and the refractive index from 2.5 to 2.8. The crystals have cubic or spheroidal habits, the prevalent particle size is 0.3-0.4 pm. 

The metal fulminates are all powerfully explosive. Of several salts examined, those of cadmium, copper and silver were more powerful detonators than mercury fulminate, while thallium fulminate was much more sensitive to heating and impact. Formally related salts are also explosive [1]. Sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium fulminates are all easily detonated by feeble friction or heat. They all form double salts with mercury(II) fulminate which also explode readily, that of the rubidium salt at 45°C [2], Individually indexed compounds are ... 

Fig. 9-22 a and b). They can be found in the immediate vicinity of the emission source. In a small area (see Tab. 9-10) the concentrations of cadmium exceed the index value of the category B of the Dutch hst [1988] (Tab. 9-11) which implies a need for more detailed investigation. By means of the kriging estimation the critical polluted area can be well assessed. The locations of the concentration maxima enable conclusions to be drawn about the source of emission. The blast furnace works in the north of the Maxhiitte proves to be the main source of iron and cadmium. This also corresponds to the impact of particulate emissions in the territory investigated (see also Fig. 9-19).

Cadmium availability index (M H4Cl-exlractable Cd Krishnamurti et al., 1995). 

The kinetics of Cd release, as influenced by the LMMOLs, play an important role in plant Cd uptake. The kinetic rate constant of Cd release, as obtained from desorption kinetics of Cd by LMMOLs and the amount of Cd released by renewal of LMMOLs from the soil, followed the same trend as the cadmium availability index and Cd grain content of durum wheat grown on the soils (Table 5.7). These reports highlight the significance of Cd desorption kinetics in understanding Cd dynamics and phytoavailability.

A technique which has proven useful for our studies is that of cylindrical internal reflectance (CIR), coupled with a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. In this study, an IBM-85 FTIR equipped with either a DTGS (deuterated triglycine sulfate) or MCT (mercury-cadmium-tellurium) detector was used. The infrared radiation is focused by concave mirrors onto the 45° conical ends of a transmitting crystal (Figure 1). The crystal may be made of any material which is optically transparent, has a high mechanical strength and high index of refraction, and is resistant to thermal shock and chemical attack. Suitable materials include ZnS, ZnSe,...
