Carbon Tetrachloride, Chloroform and Carbon Hexachloride from Natural Gas.

Carbon Tetrachloride and Chloroform Partition Coefficients Derived from Aqueous Desorption of Contaminated Hanford Sediments

Nanosized Carbon Particles From Natural Gas Soot

Carbon nanoparticles were prepared by refluxing the combustion soot of natural gas in nitric acid. Transmission ElectronMicroscopymeasurements showed that the resulting particles exhibited an average diameter of 4.8( 0.6 nm, and the crystalline lattices were consistent with graphitic carbons. CNMRand FTIR spectroscopic measurements further confirmed the presence of sp carbons in the form of ary...

Carbon Tetrachloride in Helminthiasis

In the Journal of the American Mcdical Association of November 19th, 1921, there appeared a note by Maurice C. Hall on the use of Carbon tetrachloride for the removal of hookworms in animals. Dr. Hall is the senior zoologist, United States Bureau of Animal Industry, and he found this drug to be a powerful anthelmintic in dogs* and suggested its trial in human uncinariasis. Carbon tetrachloride ...

Guanidine Retention and Calcium Reserve as Antagonistic Factors in Carbon Tetrachloride and Chloroform Poisoning.

Carbon tetrachloride, even in very large doses, has been shownby Lamson et al. (1) to produce no acute intoxication in dogs on a well balanced mixed diet. A preliminary note from this labortory (2) reported, however, that similar or even very small doses of the drug caused a severe and usually fatal poisoning in dogs on a diet of lean meat without bones. One radical difference in the two diets ...

Carbon Tetrachloride Toxicological Overview

 Acute inhalation or ingestion may cause nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and difficulty breathing  Acute inhalation or ingestion can also cause liver and kidney damage which in severe cases may lead to coma and death  Dermal exposure may cause irritation and contact with undiluted carbon tetrachloride may cause a burning sensation and redness  Ocular exposu...
