OBJECTIVE
To investigate a worker who experienced systemic and respiratory symptoms when exposed to a vanadium containing powder used as a catalyst in the production of maleic anhydride.
METHODS
The investigation included inhalation challenge with the suspected compound combined with monitoring of
Seven polyoxotungstates substituted with vanadium or titanium atoms were examined for their activity against Flaviviridae (Dengue fever virus, DFV), Orthomyxoviridae (influenza virus type A, fluV-A), Paramyxoviridae (respiratory syncytial virus, RSV, parainfluenza virus type 2, PfluV-2 and canine
In the early treatment of diabetes with vanadium, inorganic vanadium compounds have been the focus of attention; organic vanadium compounds are nowadays increasingly attracting attention. A key compound is bis(maltolato)oxidovanadium, which became introduced into clinical tests Phase IIa. Organic
The two-dimensional (2D) vanadium carbide (V 2 C) MXene has shown great potential as a photothermal agent (PTA) for photothermal therapy (PTT). However, the use of V 2 C in PTT is limited by the harsh synthesis condition and low photothermal conversion efficiency (PTCE). Herein, to address such an
Photothermal therapy had great potential in being a new approach of tumour ablation due to their high selectivity and low side effect. However, the shallow penetration depth of near-infrared (NIR) irradiation resulted in the limited curative effect. Herein, a novel nanomedicine was developed based
BACKGROUND
Ambient particulate matter (PM) exposure is associated with children's respiratory health. Little is known about the importance of different PM constituents. We investigated the effects of PM constituents on asthma, allergy, and lung function until the age of 11-12 years.
METHODS
For
The type of lung disease caused by metal compounds depends on the nature of the offending agent, its physicochemical form, the dose, exposure conditions and host factors. The fumes or gaseous forms of several metals, e.g. cadmium (Cd), manganese (Mn), mercury (Hg), nickel carbonyl (Nl(CO)4, zinc
