Eye injury with mercuric chloride.

With the advent of modern ophthalmic treatment the use of mercury preparations in ophthalmology has almost been relegated to past history, but mercurous chloride (calomel) is still occasionally used as an insufflation into the eyes, especially in such conditions as phlyctenular keratoconjunctivitis. Recently we saw a case wherein mercuric chloride (HgCl2) was mistaken for calomel and dusted int...

Acute Toxicity of Mercuric Chloride (HgCl2), Lead Chloride (PbCl2) and Zinc Sulfate (ZnSO4) on Silver Dollar Fish (Metynnis fasciatus)

Background: Since heavy metals can accumulate in the tissues of aquatic organisms, they can cause a range of hazardous effects which can become harmful to humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the acute effects of some heavy metals as potential dangerous substances by assessing the mortality effects of Mercuric Chloride (HgCl2), Lead Chloride (PbCl2) and Zinc Sulfate (ZnSO4) pollutan...

Prenatal Mercuric Chloride Exposure Causes Developmental Deficits in Rat Cortex

Introduction: Environmental pollution with heavy metals such as mercury is a major health problem. Growing studies on the field have shown the deleterious effects of mercury on human and nonhuman nervous system, especially in infants, however the effects of prenatal exposure to mercuricchloride on cortical development are not yet well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the eff...
