Contaminated chloroform.

Chloroform

It was perhaps fitting that Lieut.-Colonel Edward Lawrie, should signalise the year of his retirement from the post of R,esidenc\r Surgeon at Hyderabad by the publication of a volume on Chloroform, a subject with which he has been identified for many years past, and in defence of his views on which, and those of his master Syme, he has fought non sine gloria for many }7ears. The introduction to...

Evaluation of Air Quality in Buildings Located Above TCE and Chloroform Contaminated Plume - A Field Study

Vapor intrusion (VI) has been recognized since the 1990s as a potential pathway of concern at contaminated sites. VI is the migration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the subsurface soils into overlying buildings. The major sources of organic vapors are waste disposal sites (landfills), contaminated old industrial sites, contaminated subsurface soils, and contaminated groundwater. The ...

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

Chloroform

Uptake of chloroform by skin during short exposures to contaminated water.

Uptake of chloroform into hairless rat stratum corneum from dilute aqueous solutions was studied using tape-stripping to determine amounts deposited in the skin under various environmental exposure scenarios. The length of exposure of sedated animals to the chloroform-containing medium, the frequency and duration of tape-stripping, and the number of tape-strips per location were varied to map t...
