Toxicants, removal

Reclamation, Disposal, and Toxicity. Removal of poisons and inorganic deposits from used catalysts is typically difficult and usually uneconomical. Thus some catalysts are used without regeneration, although they may be processed to reclaim expensive metal components. Used precious metal catalysts, including automobile exhaust conversion catalysts, are treated (often by the suppHers) to extract the metals, and recovery efficiencies are high. Some spent hydroprocessing catalysts may be used as sources of molybdenum and other valuable metals.

Casualties/personnel Speed in decontamination is absolutely essential. To be effective, decontamination must be completed within 2 minutes after postexposure. However, decontamination after the initial 2 minutes should still be undertaken in order to prevent additional percutaneous absorption of the agent leading to systemic toxicity. Remove all clothing as it may continue to emit "trapped" agent vapor after contact with the vapor cloud has ceased. Shower using copious amounts of soap and water. Ensure that the hair has been washed and rinsed to remove potentially trapped vapor. To be effective, decontamination must be completed within 2 minutes of exposure. If there is a potential that the eyes have been exposed to vesicants, irrigate with water or 0.9% saline solution for a minimum of 15 minutes.

The peroxide group is essential for neurotoxicity, and, depending on the assay, artemisinin could be considered relatively nontoxic or quite toxic. Removal of the oxygen atom at C-10 (10-deoxoartemisinin) resulted in a marked reduction in neurotoxicity.

Finally, defining a chemical s action and potential toxicity removed from its natural source is blatantly wrong. We must adapt a more integrated and holistic approach to risk assessment. Some of these concepts are embedded in cur-...

D. Toxicity Removal of water from the intracellular compartment may cause hyponatremia and pulmonary edema. As the water is excreted, hypernatremia may follow. Headache, nausea, and vomiting are common. 

If the sample is on a slide Pipet the probe(s) in 11-15 p hybridization solution onto a clean 18 x 18-mm or 22 x 22-mm cover slip (depending on how much area the specimen covers). Remove a slide from the prehybridization solution (wear gloves, because formamide is toxic). Remove as much of the liquid as possible by wiping the edges and aspirating carefully around the sample. Touch the specimen to the drop of hybridization solution to pick up the cover slip. Quickly invert the slide the probe solution should spread out under the cover slip.
