Trichlorethylene

Trichlorethylene: a review.

The physical and chemical characteristics of trichlorethylene are discussed together with its uses in industry and medical practice. Chemical and physical methods of the estimation of trichlorethylene in air have been described, including the use of gas detector tubes, which today is the method most commonly employed. The metabolism of trichlorethylene was systematically investigated by Butler ...

Cardiac arrest during trichlorethylene anaesthesia.

though not directly relevant, if the volunteer rate was related in any way to previous poliomyelitis experience in the area. This was clearly a well-conducted experiment carried out in extremely difficult circumstances, but whether or not the younger group of children benefited from the vaccine to the same extent as the older group depends upon this question of bias.-I am, etc., London, W.C.1. ...

Measurements of Flat-Flame Velocities of Diethyl Ether in Air.

This study presents new adiabatic laminar burning velocities of diethyl ether in air, measured on a flat-flame burner using the heat flux method. The experimental pressure was 1 atm and temperatures of the fresh gas mixture ranged from 298 to 398 K. Flame velocities were recorded at equivalence ratios from 0.55 to 1.60, for which stabilization of the flame was possible. The maximum laminar burn...

Changes in respiratory physiology during ether--air anaesthesia.

Measurements of arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide tension, alveolar ventilation, alveolar to arterial oxygen difference, and ratio of deadspace to tidal volume have been made to show the changes induced by ether/air anaesthesia with spontaneous respiration, with mechanical ventilation, and with mechanical overventilation. There was a disproportionate fall in oxygen tension during spontaneous r...
