The exposure to and health effects of antimony
CONTEXT This minireview describes the health effects of antimony exposure in the workplace and the environment. AIM To collate information on the consequences of occupational and environmental exposure to antimony on physiological function and well-being. METHODS The criteria used in the current minireview for selecting articles were adopted from proposed criteria in The International Class...
متن کاملAssessment of Industrial Antimony Exposure and Immunologic Function for Workers in Taiwan
This study investigated antimony exposure among employees in industries in Taiwan and evaluated whether their immunologic markers were associated with antimony exposure. We recruited 91 male workers and 42 male office administrators from 2 glass manufacturing plants, 1 antimony trioxide manufacturing plants, and 2 engineering plastic manufacturing plants. Air samples were collected at worksites...
متن کاملAssembly of antimony doped tin oxide nanocrystals into conducting macroscopic aerogel monoliths.
We present the assembly of preformed antimony doped tin oxide nanobuilding blocks into centimeter sized aerogels with surface areas exceeding 340 m(2) g(-1). After calcination, the resistivity of the aerogels was decreased by 4 orders of magnitude to a few kΩ cm, with the primary conducting structures measuring only a few nanometers.
متن کاملAntimony Toxicity
Antimony toxicity occurs either due to occupational exposure or during therapy. Occupational exposure may cause respiratory irritation, pneumoconiosis, antimony spots on the skin and gastrointestinal symptoms. In addition antimony trioxide is possibly carcinogenic to humans. Improvements in working conditions have remarkably decreased the incidence of antimony toxicity in the workplace. As a th...
متن کاملInitial oxidation of ultrathin antimony films on Au(111) and of polycrystalline antimony.
It has been shown previously that antimony evaporated onto a Au(111) surface grows in a layer-bylayer mode. The present work compares the initial, fast-oxidation stage of these films with that on bulk polycrystalline antimony. Measurements were carried out in an ultrahigh-vacuum environment using Auger electron spectroscopy, low-energy electron diffraction, electron-energy-loss spectroscopy, an...
