methane and Granuloma, Respiratory Tract

methane has been researched along with Granuloma, Respiratory Tract in 9 studies

Methane: The simplest saturated hydrocarbon. It is a colorless, flammable gas, slightly soluble in water. It is one of the chief constituents of natural gas and is formed in the decomposition of organic matter. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
methane : A one-carbon compound in which the carbon is attached by single bonds to four hydrogen atoms. It is a colourless, odourless, non-toxic but flammable gas (b.p. -161degreeC).

Granuloma, Respiratory Tract: Granulomatous disorders affecting one or more sites in the respiratory tract.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Comparative toxicity studies in which mice were given equal weights of test materials showed that SWCNTs were more toxic than quartz, which is considered a serious occupational health hazard if it is chronically inhaled; ultrafine carbon black was shown to produce minimal lung responses."2.43A review of carbon nanotube toxicity and assessment of potential occupational and environmental health risks. ( Arepalli, S; Hunter, RL; James, JT; Lam, CW; McCluskey, R, 2006)
"Therefore, both rigidity and genetic susceptibility should be major considerations for risk assessment of MWCNTs."1.46STAT1-dependent and -independent pulmonary allergic and fibrogenic responses in mice after exposure to tangled versus rod-like multi-walled carbon nanotubes. ( Bonner, JC; Dandley, EC; Duke, KS; Ihrie, MD; Parsons, GN; Shipkowski, KA; Taylor-Just, AJ; Thompson, EA, 2017)
"No adverse effects were observed after inhalation exposure to 10 mg/m3 graphite nanoplatelets or relatively low specific surface area carbon black."1.39Comparative inhalation toxicity of multi-wall carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphite nanoplatelets and low surface carbon black. ( Gröters, S; Hofmann, T; Küttler, K; Landsiedel, R; Ma-Hock, L; Strauss, V; Treumann, S; van Ravenzwaay, B; Wiench, K; Wohlleben, W, 2013)
" These results show that, for the test conditions described here and on an equal-weight basis, if carbon nanotubes reach the lungs, they are much more toxic than carbon black and can be more toxic than quartz, which is considered a serious occupational health hazard in chronic inhalation exposures."1.32Pulmonary toxicity of single-wall carbon nanotubes in mice 7 and 90 days after intratracheal instillation. ( Hunter, RL; James, JT; Lam, CW; McCluskey, R, 2004)
" Pulmonary exposures to carbonyl iron or graphite particles produced no significant adverse effects."1.32Comparative pulmonary toxicity assessment of single-wall carbon nanotubes in rats. ( Laurence, BR; Reed, KL; Reynolds, GA; Roach, DH; Warheit, DB; Webb, TR, 2004)
