HD vapors are heavier than air and tend to seek lower elevations. HD is slightly soluble in cold water and soluble in most organic solvents. Exposure in any concentration will cause severe choking. Exposure to vapors in low to moderate concentrations will cause temporary blindness and inflammation of the entire respiratory tract. Higher concentrations cause permanent blindness and strip the bronchial tubes of their mucus membrane linings. [Pg.78]

Since the concern of this monograph is teratogens, the effects of chemicals on sperm and male reproduction are not dealt with. However, for readers interested in the latter a recent review article by Schrag and Dixon, "Occupational Exposures Associated with Male Reproductive Dysfunction" (ref. 20)is recommended. Chapters on various aspects of male reproductive toxicology and on sperm production of men working under heavy-metal or organic-solvent exposure are presented by Hemminki et al. (ref. 19). [Pg.3]

Knowing that peptides and amines confer thermal stability on enzymes from certain thermophilic organisms (47-49) led some workers to examine protein stabilization by antibodies. It was found that the presence of specific polyclonal antibodies stabilize several enzymes (50, 51). In addition, not only did antibodies increjise the thermostability of a-amylase, glucoamylase, and subtilisin, but some stability toward acid denaturation, oxidizing agent, and organic solvent exposure was increased in specific cases (52, 53).

SLE is a chronic autoimmune connective tissue disease characterized by inflammation and injury to the joints, tendons, and other connective tissues. Organs affected include the lungs, heart, blood vessels, brain, kidneys, and skin. SLE onset is associated with exposure to silica. Though earlier studies have suggested that organic solvent exposure can also be causative for SLE, more recent studies have refuted thisJ2,3,9 No literature references were found associating SLE onset with exposures to chemical mixtures.

Only a very few studies have documented the toxic effects of chemical mixtures on the musculoskeletal system. Almost all of these studies address the effects of tobacco smoking and organic solvent exposure. The following studies are illustrative of those reported. [Pg.477]
