The Mechanism of Acute Lung Injury Induced by Nickel Carbonyl in Rats
Nickel carbonyl is a highly toxic metal compound produced from the reaction that occurs between nickel and carbon monoxide under pressure. As previously reported, nickel carbonyl can cause acute aspiration pneumonia, and animal experiments showed it was toxic to animal lung, liver, brain, and other...

Zusammenfassung: | Nickel carbonyl is a highly toxic metal compound produced from the reaction that occurs between nickel and carbon monoxide under pressure. As previously reported, nickel carbonyl can cause acute aspiration pneumonia, and animal experiments showed it was toxic to animal lung, liver, brain, and other vital organs[1]. However, few studies have investigated nickel carbonyl poisoning in humans. |
