For poisoning

Chelated complexes such as sodium zirconium lactate [15529-67-6] or ammonium zirconium carbonate [22829-17-0] and acidic forms such as zirconium hydroxy oxide chloride [18428-88-1] have been used in preparations in deodorants or for treatment for poison oak and poison ivy dermatitis. In such occasions, when the skin had been cut or abraded, a few users developed granulomas which have been identified as a delayed hypersensitivity to zirconium (99). These may take several weeks to develop, and commonly persist for 6 months to over a year. 

Because of its extreme insolubiUty, barium sulfate is not toxic the usual antidote for poisonous barium compounds is to convert them to barium sulfate by administering sodium or magnesium sulfate. In medicine, barium sulfate is widely used as an x-ray contrast medium (see Imaging TECHNOLOGY X-RAY technology). It is also used in photographic papers, filler for plastics, and in concrete as a radiation shield. Commercially, barium sulfate is sold both as natural barite ore and as a precipitated product. Blanc fixe is also used in making white sidewall mbber tires or in other mbber appHcations. 

Aids in the procurement of information on the contents and potential toxicity of substances that may cause accidental poisonings and on the proper management ofpoisonings. Establishes standards for poison information and control centers and maintains a national database on poisons.

Thus the promotional index PIp is positive for promoters and negative for poisons. In the latter case the definition of PIp coincides with that of the toxicity defined by Lamy-Pitara, Bencharif and Barbier several years ago.21 In the case of pure site-blocking it is PIp=-l. Values of PI02- up to 150 and of PINas+ up to 6000 have been measured as we will see in Chapter 4. 

Clara Haber reportedly pleaded with Haber to stop his poison gas work. She visited the training site for poison gas workers and was horrified by experiments conducted on animals. Early in the war, an experiment in the institute laboratory exploded moments after Haber left the room. One scientist lost his hand, and a young physicist, Otto Sackur, one of Clara s classmates at Breslau University, was killed. As Sackur lay dying, Haber stood speechless, unable to do anything but shake his head in shock. It was Clara who thought to try first aid and who ordered her friend s necktie cut away so he could breathe more easily. Haber later found a job at the institute for Sackur s daughter. 

By the time Haber died, Otto Hahn, acting as provisional director of his institute, had carried out the orders that Haber had resigned over. A Nazi Party member became the institute s director and, in the subsequent Nazi takeover, no other institute of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society suffered as severely as Haber s. The military planned to make the institute a center for poison gas research, and former staff members were not needed.

All of these processes are displayed schematically in Fig. 6. The adsorbed species responsible for poisoning have not been determined experimentally and hence are represented by a query. Similarly the precursors of the hydrogenolysis products are not known the methine groups shown should be regarded merely as an example.

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).

Hence, catalysis related challenges for SOFC cathode are the development of cathode specifications, i.e., material and microstructure, having high catalytic activity for oxygen reduction at 600 °C, high electron and ion conductivity, and a low sensitivity for poisoning by volatile Cr species. Again, as for the anode, cost and compatibility related requirements have to be considered.
