Plutonium is poisonous due to its radioactivity, emitting alpha particles that can damage cells and tissues when inhaled or ingested. Once inside the body, plutonium can accumulate in the bones and liver, increasing the risk of cancer and other health problems. Exposure to even small amounts of plutonium can be harmful and can lead to long-term health effects.

Silicone itself is not poisonous. However, if a silly band made of silicone is ingested, it could pose a choking hazard or blockage in the digestive system. It is important to keep small objects like silly bands away from young children to prevent accidental ingestion.

It depends on its use!! This is the main component of everyday instant contact adhesive such as superglue and loctite!! If it is being used in the manufacturers instruction then no harm should come from doing so. However this product can be abused and cause alot of harm, apart from the obvious danger of glueing yourself to things and others. Working in a small closed environment and breathing the fumes can cause irritation and after prolonged regular exposure can cause asthma!!

It is important to follow safety protocols when working with taconite dust to minimize the risk of inhalation.

An alpha toxin is a type of protein toxin produced by certain bacteria that can cause damage to host cells by disrupting cell membranes. This disruption can lead to cell death, tissue damage, and contribute to the overall pathogenicity of the bacteria.

Laundry detergent can be poisonous if ingested or inhaled in large quantities. It is important to keep laundry detergent out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion. If ingested, seek immediate medical attention.
