Tetramethyl lead absorption: a report of human exposure to a high level of tetramethyl lead.
Accidental human exposure to a high level of tetramethyl lead is described. Tetramethyl lead is blended with petrol as an antiknock agent, and it has similar physical properties to tetraethyl lead. The patient had high levels of lead in urine, averaging 4-75 mumol (983 mug) daily for the first four days after exposure and he continued to have raised levels of urinary lead for six months. He had...
متن کاملToxicity of tetramethyl lead solutions to mice and rabbits.
Tetramethyl lead (TML) has recently been adopted as an antiknock substance in gasoline. In some industries, tetramethyl lead has been substituted for tetraethyl lead (TEL) mixture or "ethylfluid". This recent development is the result of technical research which has shown that there is a more uniform octane distribution in all light and heavy fractions of gasoline in the combustion cylinders wi...
متن کاملAssessment of exposure to lead through air and biological monitoring in a lead and zinc mine
Background and aim: Lead is ubiquitous and one of the earliest metals discovered by the human. This metal is widely used in different industries due to its important physico-chemical properties like softness, high malleability, ductility, low melting point and resistance to corrosion. Lead absorbed in body with several routs and when transfer in blood is primarily in red blood cells. Human exp...
متن کاملLow level exposure to lead.
Only five people had used condoms on every occasion and eight people had not used them at all. In my clinic I have been asking girls who have had sex with strangers abroad how often they were able to persuade their partners to use condoms-or even withdrawal. I have so far reached zero out of seven. Although all the girls had asked the men to use condoms, they had refused, and the girls, all of ...

Mass spectra of C(CI-I3)" Si(CI-I3)" Ge(CI-I3)" Sn(CI-I3)" and Pb (CI-Ia), were obtained with a Consolidated 21103 mass spectrometer. I sotopic abundan ces of carbon , si licon , germanium, tin, and lead were obtained from t he observed spectra and used to calculate the monoisotopic spectra. The mass spectra of t he Group IV tetramethyls a re qualitatively similar. The principal ion in each cas...
