Relative affinities of different hemoglobins for oxygen are expressed as P5Q, the POj that half-saturates them with Oj. Hemoglobins samrate at the partial pressures of their respective respiratory organ, eg, the lung or placenta. 

Pesticides have a statistically reliable effect on children in zones where OCPs are intensively used (in the Salyansk region of Azerbaijan, the amount of OCPs introduced into humans exceeded public health standards by up to 7.7 times). Primary illness of the endocrine system increased 3.1 times in children up to age 15 (over a five year observation period) in disruptions in diet and metabolism, the nervous system, and the sensory and respiratory organs in increased frequency of illness (over five years) in children up to age 15 (an overall increase by 3.6 times, and by class of illness, from 2.2-7.6 times) in the prevalence of pathological disruptions according to data from medical examinations of children from 8-14 years (an overall increase by 2.3 times, and by class of illness by 2.0-8.4 times) in...

Its garlicky odor, faint at first, Is soon imperceptible. Exposure to H does not cause Immediate discomfort rather, the onset of effects Is delayed and insidious. Troops have been known to remain In contaminated areas until their eyes, skin, and respiratory organs were affected. Exposure of skin produces erythema, then blisters that are painful and slow to heal. Such eye Injuries as conjunctivitis, keratitis, and corneal ulcers cause temporary or permanent blindness. The respiratory effects of H Include rhinitis, laryngitis, bronchitis, and, In severe cases, destruction of mucous membranes. The bone marrow and digestive system are affected by systemic administration of H. The multiple effects of this Insidious agent make It among the most potent used on the battlefield. 

Thiocarbonyl Tetrachloride, Carbon Tetrachlorosulphide, or Trichloromethyl Sulphur Chloride, CSC14 or C13C.SC1.—Thiocarbonyl tetrachloride may be prepared by the action of dry chlorine on dried carbon disulphide in the presence of iodine.2 It is a golden-yellow liquid, with an intensely disagreeable odour it attacks the eyes and respiratory organs. Its density is 1-722.3 It boils at 149° C.4... 

Toxicity. Coball, like most oilier metals, is not entirely harmless, although ii is not in any way comparable lo the known toxic metals, such as mercury, cadmium, and lead. Inhalation of fine cobalt dust over long periods can cause an irritation of Ihe respiratory organs, which may result in chronic bronchitis. Complete recovery is usually achieved upon removal from the contaminated atmosphere. Cobalt salts can cause benign dermatoses, either in people new to handling them, or aflci prolonged exposure, usually several years. 

Inflammation of the respiratory organs and internal membranes generally. One ounce of herb in 1 1/2 pints of water simmered down to 1 pint. Dose, wineglassful every two or three hours. Used externally as a poultice for inflamed surfaces, boils, burns and skin eruptions. 

In catarrhal affections of the respiratory organs. Often a constituent of asthma prescriptions. 

For centuries people have suspected that dust could be harmful. At least, early writers indicated in their works a general connection between lung diseases and dust inhalation, even though they didn t distinguish between the various types of respiratory diseases. For example, Pliny refers to inhalation of fatal dust, and Agricola speaks of the pestilential air and the corrosive dust. In his hook published in 1700, Ramazzini describes the effect of dust on the respiratory organs and describes numerous cases of fatal dust disease. 

Many solvents are absorbed not only through the respiratory organs but also through the skin e.g. tetrachloromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, benzene). This leads to dehydration of the skin due to the removal of water and fat, thereby allowing the invasion of bacteria and dirt. 

The vapours of these two substances violently attack the respiratory organs.
