Six patients (three men and three wom− en; mean age 25.3 years, range 12 ± 56) in− gested tablets of Celphos (aluminum phosphide, weight 3 g, diameter 15 mm) with suicidal intentions (66.6 %) or acci− dentally (33.3%). All of the patients vom− ited out the partially dissolved tablet 15 min later. They were managed with symptomatic treatment. All of the pa− tients had progressive dysphagia for t...

Aluminum phosphide (AlP) is used throughout the world as pesticides to protect stored grains from rodents and other pests (Cienki, 2001). The chemical is usually formulated in pellets, granules or as a dust. Upon contact with moisture in the environment, AlP undergoes a chemical reaction yielding phosphine gas (PH3), which is the active pesticidal component and a very toxic system poison, makes...

Indium phosphide, gallium arsenide phosphide, and aluminum indium phosphide have been deposited by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy using tertiarybutylphosphine and tertiarybutylarsine. The effects of growth temperature and V/III ratio on the amount of silicon, sulfur, carbon, and oxygen in InP have been determined. Minimum incorporation was observed at 565 1C and a V/III ratio of 32. In this c...
