Poisoning by a fungicide used for seed-borne diseases of cereals, ethyl mercury p-toluene sulphonanilide (Granoson M, Dupont), is described. It affected a large number of farmers and their families who used the dressed seed in the preparation of home-made bread. Many systems were involved, including the kidneys, the gastro-intestinal tract, the skin, the heart, and the muscles, but involvement ...
Of 4736 poisoning incidents registered in the Poison Control Centre in Zagreb from 1985 to 1999, household chemicals caused 23%. In the group of cleaning products, 11% of poisoning incidents were caused by corrosives, 9% by liquid detergents and 4% by hypochlorite. Organic solvents caused 18% of household chemical poisonings; among them gasoline and thinners were the most frequent. Cosmetics we...
There is an error in the following sentence in the article abstract: “This is comparable to other northern hemisphere studies, but on average 0.5 ng m 3 higher than at its sister monitoring station at Auchencorth Moss, Scotland, but 14% lower than that found in a similar study at the same location of 1.68 ng m 3 in 1995/6”. The corrected sentence should read: “This is comparable to other northe...
In the present investigation histopathological lesions in the selected tissues such as gills, kidney and eye of the fingerlings of Cirrhinus mrigala exposed to a sublethal concentration of mercury, i.e. 240 μg/l from static bioassay have been studied. The primary gill lamellae showed degeneration in the middle and distal region. In distal region, spherical structure showing complete degeneratio...
The article by Ravibabu, et al, 1 provides important new data in the field of biomarkers to monitor exposures to lead within the workplace, as in the lead acid battery manufacturing. They found that the serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels are not elevated in association with concentrations of blood lead levels among workers in the lead acid battery manufacturing plant. In our (unpublishe...
Autism is a syndrome characterized by impairments in social relatedness and communication, repetitive behaviors, abnormal movements, and sensory dysfunction. Recent epidemiological studies suggest that autism may affect 1 in 150 US children. Exposure to mercury can cause immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions similar to traits defining or associated with autism, and t...
Introduction Mercury poisoning causes hearing loss in humans and animals. Acute and long-term exposures produce irreversible peripheral and central auditory system damage, and mercury in its various forms of presentation in the environment is ototoxic. Objective We investigated the otoacoustic emissions responses in a riverside population exposed to environmental mercury by analyzing the inhibi...
The danger of methylmercury poisoning appears to be slight when the environment is not directly contaminated with methylmercury. Sediments rapidly bind mercury and decrease its availability to aquatic organisms. Sediments further have a greater propensity to demethylate than to methylate mercury. In noncontaminated aquatic ecosystems, the concentrations of methylmercury and inorganic mercury ar...
Not only is fish a good source of protein, but it also provides essential fatty acids such as omega-3, vitamins vitamin D, and minerals selenium. However, consumers are concerned about exposure to mercury through consumption. The degree depends on both the amount type consumed. Additionally, recent studies have shown that Se can prevent poisoning. To better understand risk seafood consumption, ...
