Children damage caused

As posed in Section 2.2.1, to what extent is the consequence of a child developing cancer more severe than for an elderly person Attempts to resolve such a question often involve placing monetary values on damage caused to human health or the environment [507-509], a contentious task that is not supported by Germany or Sweden (Section 4.2). 

Developing a risk profile(s) at this point may help establish context in greater detail. A risk profile identifies a risk source, event, and consequence. An example Employer failure to adequately treat developmental health hazards may damage an unborn child and cause the organization to possibly incur a 100 million dollar tort liability. You may discover other risk profiles to engage management. 

Berger (B8, B9) showed that both normal and celiac children form antibodies to a number of food proteins. These antibodies did not cause any deleterious effect in most of these individuals, but it is claimed that they have a different form in celiac children, in whom some antigens may assume a damaging role. In the celiac child certain cereals such as wheat gliadin have been shown to cause a reduction in... 

Isomerism can also be induced phulochemically, although such processes are less well understood and probably require the presence of additional free radicals. The cytotoxic metabolite bilirubin can cause brain damage in infants with neonatal jaundice this is prevented by exposing the child to intense blue light. The bilirubin is photochemically converted in the skin to metastable geometric isomers, which can be transported in the blood and excreted in bile. 

The decreased appetite, impaired weight gain, and poor turgor observed in a child who ingested 0.08 mg/kg/day white phosphorus for an intermediate duration (Sontag 1938) may have been caused by damage to the gastrointestinal tract. 

An inability to degrade amino acids causes many genetic diseases in humans. These diseases include phenylketonuria (PKU), which results from an inability to convert phenylalanine to tyrosine. The phenylalanine is instead transaminated to phenylpyruvic acid, which is excreted in the urine, although not fast enough to prevent harm. PKU was formerly a major cause of severe mental retardation. Now, however, public health laboratories screen the urine of every newborn child in the United States for the presence of phenylpyru-vate, and place children with the genetic disease on a synthetic low-phenylalanine diet to prevent neurological damage. 

The answer lies mainly in their distribution and properties. Elemental (liquid) mercury is volatile and can be inhaled. If sufficient of it enters the body, it is able to enter tissues such as the brain and cause damage, giving rise to headaches and also damaging the gums and teeth, for example. Liquid mercury, if taken into the stomach (which could occur if a child chewed and broke a thermometer, for example), would not be especially hazardous as the metal would be eliminated from the intestines in due course in the faeces. Little would be absorbed into the bloodstream. Inorganic mercury, such as occurs in salts (for example, mercuric chloride, also known as corrosive sublimate), can be absorbed from the gut and sufficient enters the bloodstream to bind to sulphur-containing... 

Hazard statement May damage fertility or the unborn child (state specific effect if known)(state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routes of exposure cause the hazard) May damage fertility or the unborn child (state specific effect if known) (state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routes of exposure cause the hazard) Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child (state specific effect if known) (state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routes of exposure cause the hazard) May cause harm to breast-fed children.
