Poisons and Toxins

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can appear brown in certain conditions due to impurities. It is toxic when inhaled in high concentrations, interfering with the body's ability to transport oxygen.

Concrete itself is not poisonous, as it is composed of cement, water, and aggregates. However, working with wet concrete can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system due to its alkaline nature. Inhaling concrete dust over a prolonged period may lead to respiratory issues, but direct poisoning from concrete itself is unlikely.

Poison in a bullet refers to a bullet that has been coated or filled with a toxic substance, such as arsenic or ricin, with the intention of causing harm or death when the bullet enters a person's body. This method is illegal and considered a serious crime under international humanitarian law.

If it is only a one time occurrence, don't worry chalk is not toxic. It will have antacid effects in the stomach, that is about it.

If the child does it frequently (especially if they are also eating other nonfood items) they may have a psychiatric disorder called Pica (or another overriding psychiatric disorder). Proper diagnosis requires a psychiatrist to evaluate the child.

Toxins can be both positively charged (cations) or negatively charged (anions) depending on their molecular structure and composition. The charge of a toxin can influence its interactions with biological systems and affect its toxicity.

Cling film is not intended for consumption and is not considered food safe. Ingesting cling film can be a choking hazard or cause blockages in the digestive system. It is important to keep cling film away from food and out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.

Carnage is generally considered to be stronger than Toxin, as Carnage is an offspring of Venom with enhanced abilities and a more violent nature. Toxin, on the other hand, is an offspring of Carnage with similar abilities but typically depicted as less powerful.

The Botulinum toxin, also cosmetically referred to as Botox, is a biotoxin that works by paralyzing muscles in the body (there are many variations of this Toxin, Type A or B, for example).

When injected in small amounts, by professionals, in strategically chosen areas of the body (such as the forehead), it paralyzes the surface muscles. This creates an appearance of smoothness/reduced wrinkles.

This same toxin, which can be found in undercooked seafood such as clams, can easily kill you if ingested (the toxin paralyzes esophageal and respiratory muscles, causing difficulty in breathing and very often death).

A small amount of toxin can kill a person - Botulinum toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum is unfortunately considered a potential bioweapon, as it is so potent it takes about 75 nanograms to kill a person.

Poisoning someone with Botulinum toxin is against the law and falls under the charge of murder.

An antidote is a substance that counteracts the effects of a poison, typically by neutralizing or blocking its toxic properties within the body. Antidotes are specifically designed to treat poisoning and prevent harmful effects on the individual.

The one that made her sleep was three days.

The one that made her die was forever.

High fever can result in the production of endogenous toxins, such as cytokines, that can lead to systemic inflammation and tissue damage. This can contribute to symptoms such as body aches, malaise, and weakness during a fever.

Probably not a good idea to wash them, but since mineral spirits are volatile and evaporate quickly, hang them outside away from anything that could burn and let the spirits evaporate off before washing them.

The weakest type of poison would typically be one that has low toxicity and is not harmful in small doses. Examples could include household chemicals like soap or vinegar which, while not intended for ingestion, are relatively safe compared to more toxic substances.

If you are referring to the little rectangular packets inside of shoe boxes that are labeled as toxic, these are small packages of dessicant which absorb moisture. This prevents shoes or other items from being damaged by moisture or humidity which can increase depending on where the boxes are being stored or transported.

Yes, gasoline is poisonous if ingested. It can cause symptoms such as vomiting, difficulty breathing, and even death if a significant amount is consumed. It is important to seek medical help immediately if gasoline is ingested.

The troublemaking compound in poison ivy is called "urushiol". It is very potent and tenacious. Burning poison ivy plants releases smoke filled with urushiol, which can create respiratory havoc if inhaled. Once killed (Round-Up works well), the plants should be buried.

The strength of a poison is determined by its LD50 value (Lethal Dose). The LD50 value is the amount of toxin it takes to kill 50 percent of a population each time a dosing experiment is done in a lab setting. The value is measured by mg/kg of body weight. For example, the LD50 value of salt is 1000 mg.kg body weight, that means that every kg of body weight must contain 1000 mg of salt in it to cause death.

The lower the LD50 value, the more potent or deadly the poison is. Remember that death is not the only end point measured in toxicology. There are many poisons that cause severe adverse effects well before they kill someone. Someone may experience things such as paralysis or cognitive disruption at levels much below the LD50 value, and some poisons take much larger doses to cause effects than others. Remember, the dose defines the poison, but the power of the poison is measure technically by the LD50 value.

Because it reverses the effects of something (anti means opposite)

To remove white out from denim shorts, you can start by scraping off any excess with a butter knife or spoon. Then blot the stain with a cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover. Wash the shorts in cold water with laundry detergent, and repeat the process if necessary before drying.

The "B" in ultraviolet B stands for the specific range of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which falls between 280-315 nanometers on the electromagnetic spectrum. UVB radiation is responsible for causing sunburn and plays a role in tanning and vitamin D synthesis.

In October 1914 the German Army began firing shrapnel shells in which the steel balls had been treated with a chemical irritant. The Germans first used chlorinegas cylinders in April 1915 when it was employed against the French Army at Ypres. Chlorine gas destroyed the respiratory organs of its victims and this led to a slow death by asphyxiation.

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is one of the most common mutagens. It can cause mutations in DNA by directly damaging the genetic material or by inducing the formation of thymine dimers, which can lead to errors during DNA replication. UV radiation is present in sunlight and can increase the risk of skin cancer.

Some common toxins in beauty products that are toxic to animals include artificial fragrances, essential oils, parabens, phthalates, and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. These ingredients can be harmful if ingested or absorbed through the skin, causing toxicity or adverse reactions in pets. It's important to keep all beauty products securely stored away from pets to prevent accidental poisoning.
