Some graphite particle structures may resemble other materials that arethought to be carcinogenic or mutagenic.
An NIH report said:
"Inhalation of graphite dust can cause lung disease, mostly in the form of mixed-dust pneumoconiosis in individuals working in the metallurgic industry or graphite mines."

What else can I help you with?
Can graphite kill you?
Graphite itself is not toxic and typically not harmful if ingested or inhaled in small amounts. However, inhaling large amounts of graphite dust can cause respiratory irritation. Eating a large amount of graphite could cause a blockage in the digestive system, leading to serious health issues.
What happens if graphite went in bloodstream?
If graphite particles entered the bloodstream, they could potentially cause blockages in blood vessels or trigger inflammatory responses. In severe cases, this could lead to serious health complications such as embolisms or tissue damage. It is important to seek medical attention if you suspect graphite has entered your bloodstream.
What is NISHOT?
noninfectious serious hazards of transfusion, or NISHOT
Many of the particles suspended in the air such as dust, pollen, smoke and fine droplets and aerosol that contain infectious virus are hazardous when inhaled. What can you do to avoid serious problems caused by these particles?
As humans we always come I contact with many viruses so we need to take blood cleansing pills or drugs
Do nuclear power plants create serious health hazards?
No.
What are the most serious hazards of wounds?
Infection or having to have a limb paralyzed.
What are the serious effects of dilluter if inhaled daily?
vomiting with blood,brain tumer,nervios system down etc
Will alpha particles cause harm if inhaled?
Yes, inhaling alpha particles can be harmful due to their high mass and charge, which allows them to cause significant damage to lung tissue. Alpha particles have a short range and cannot penetrate the skin, but when emitted from radioactive materials inside the body, they can cause serious cellular damage and increase the risk of cancer. Therefore, exposure to alpha-emitting substances should be strictly avoided.
What is the definition of social hazards?
social and psyocological hazards is anything that can mentally and/or socially damage you or someone else. This would lead to serious illness and 1 in 9 chance of hospitalisation.
Is liquid nitrogen safe to breathe?
No, liquid nitrogen is not safe to breathe as it can cause serious harm to the respiratory system and can be fatal if inhaled.
What are belt sander hazards?
Belt sander hazards include the risk of serious injuries from the rotating belt, which can cause lacerations or abrasions if skin comes into contact with it. Additionally, there is the potential for eye injuries from dust and debris generated during sanding. Prolonged exposure to airborne particles can pose respiratory hazards, and improper use may lead to electric shock or equipment malfunctions. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and safe operating practices are essential to mitigate these risks.
Because of its low penetrating ability the type of radiation which is usually only a hazard when inhaled or ingested is?
Alpha radiation is usually only a hazard when inhaled or ingested because it has low penetrating ability and can be stopped by skin or paper. However, if alpha-emitting materials are inhaled or ingested, they can cause serious damage to internal tissues.
