Two cases of poisoning by contamination of nitrous oxide with higher oxides of nitrogen during anaesthesia.

It will now be widely known that contamination with a higher oxide of nitrogen occurred in a batch of nitrous oxide cylinders which were filled by the British Oxygen Company near the beginning of September 1966. When one considers the vast numbers of cylinders of nitrous oxide diat have been used during the last 40 years, contamination is obviously extremely rare; but, despite the care taken by...

Indoor Nitrogen Oxides

Nitrogen monoxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are gases produced by hightemperature combustion through reactions between nitrogen and oxygen. Both nitrogen in fuel and nitrogen in the air can participate in the reactions. Formation of NO can be followed by further oxidation into NO2 in the atmosphere. NO2 is the most toxic of the nitrogen oxides (grouped generically as NOx) and it is very i...

Air Pollution Grant: Nitrogen Dioxide Determination in Air via the Palmes Diffusion Tube Method - An air pollution monitoring kit for schools and colleges

Nitrogen Dioxide: Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is one of a group of highly reactive gasses known as "oxides of nitrogen," or "nitrogen oxides (NOx)." Other nitrogen oxides include nitrous acid and nitric acid. While EPA’s National Ambient Air Quality Standard covers this entire group of NOx, NO2 is the component of greatest interest and the indicator for the larger group of nitrogen oxides. NO2 forms...
