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...
متن کاملAbrogation of mercuric chloride-induced nephritis in the Brown Norway rat by treatment with antibodies against TNFα
HgCl(2) induces an autoimmune disease in the Brown Norway rat characterized by synthesis of autoantibodies (mainly, anti-GBM Abs), severe proteinuria and interstitial nephritis. Also, HgCl(2)- injected rats develop glomerular cell infiltrates consisting of ED1(+) cells (monocyte/macrophage), starting on day 4 and reaching a maximum on day 8. Treatment with anti-TNF-alpha antiserum had preventat...
متن کاملGrowth of staphylococci on mercuric chloride agar.
Smith, P. B. (Communicable Disease Center, Atlanta, Ga.). Growth of staphylococci on mercuric chloride agar. J. Bacteriol. 84:1016-1019. 1962.-An attempt has been made to corroborate a report that "epidemic" strains of staphylococci are more resistant to mercuric salts than are "nonepidemic" strains. A comparison of mercury resistance with coagulase production and phage type or pattern of 493 s...
متن کاملUrinary urobilinogen determined by a mercuric chloride procedure.
In this quantitative assay, urinary urobilinogen is oxidized to urobilin with iodate in an acid medium, the pH is adjusted to 6 with sodium acetate, and the mixture is reacted with alcoholic HgCl2 solution, extracted with CHCl3, the measured spectrophotometrically at 513 nm. The artificial standards of previous methods have been replaced with crystalline stercobilin IX (commercially available),...
متن کاملEffect of Sodium Selenide on Renal Toxicity Induced By Mercuric Chloride in Rat
Background and Aims: Mercury, with its oxidative activity, causes damage to the antioxidant enzymes thus resulting in physiological disorders. Sodium selenide is an antioxidant that protects antioxidant enzymes. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of sodium selenide on renal toxicity induced by mercuric chloride in rats. Materials and Methods: Animals were divided in...
