12
Bhopal, India Union Carbide release of: Methylisocyanate (MIC)
13
Toxic Oil Syndrome Spain, 1982 Rapeseed oil denatured with aniline (pulmonary disease)
14
Jake Leg Paralysis Triorthocresyl phosphate: -Jamacian ginger contaminated by TOCP -delayed sensory-motor neuropathy Also: Morocco: OPIDN after TOCP adulterated cooking oil
15
Epping England, 1965 Flour + methylenedianiline Toxic hepatitis “Epping Jaundice”
16
Turkey, 1956 Wheat + hexachlorobenzene Porphyria cunea tarda
17
Used as: oxidizer, pesticide, explosives, bleaching paper Chlorates
18
Used to make explosives & dyes Dinitrobenzene also Dinitrotoluene
19
Dyes, solvent, emulsifier (skin creams/ latex) Sensitizer= contact dermatitis Sensitizer= occupational asthma Ethylenediamine
20
O-Phenylenediamine (OPD) vs P-Phenylenediamine (PPD) Similarities vs different toxicities? Similarities: both are used in dyes O-Phenylenediamine (OPD) -Severe urticaria/ dermatitis P-Phenylenediamine (PPD) -Bladder cancer
21
-Used to manufacture dyes and pharmaceuticals -Gasoline additive -Intermediate in synthesis of: wood preservatives wetting agents for textiles frothing agents for ore dressing special lacquers metal complexes Xylidine
22
Acrylamides vs Acrylates -Similarities -Differences Similarities: polymer production Irritants Differences: Acrylamide- axonopathy
23
Dimethylamine vs Dimethylacetamide (DMAC) vs Dimethylformamide Dimethylamine -Breaks down to HCl, phosgene -P. neuropathy Dimethylacetamide -Paint remover, solvent for plastics -Potent hepatotoxin Dimethylformamide -Universal solvent, penetrates plastics -Potent hepatotoxin -Disulfiram rxn
