Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Enquiry into the occupational history of a patient presenting with stupor, hyperpyrexia and profuse sweating, and dying at a Winnipeg hospital a few hours later in coma, finally led to the identification of pentachlorophenol-a substance widely used as a wood preservative-as the cause of death of this worker and the cause of non-fatal intoxication in four other workers engaged by wood-processing plants."7.64INDUSTRIAL PENTACHLOROPHENOL POISONING IN WINNIPEG. ( BERGNER, H; CONSTANTINIDIS, P; MARTIN, JH, 1965)
" In humans it is readily absorbed by ingestion and inhalation but is less well absorbed dermally."6.42Pentachlorophenol poisoning. ( Proudfoot, AT, 2003)
"The basis of the treatment of acute poisoning is intensive supportive care with prevention of dangerous rise in temperature."6.38Human pentachlorophenol poisoning. ( Jorens, PG; Schepens, PJ, 1993)

( BERGNER, H; CONSTANTINIDIS, P; MARTIN, JH, 1965)
"Pentachlorophenol is a substance whose widespread use has led to substantial environmental contamination."2.38[The place of pentachlorophenol in general medicinal practice]. ( Blázovics, A; Fehér, J; Vásárhelyi, B, 1993)
" Tissue residue analysis confirmed presence of toxic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofuran isomers known to be in pentachlorophenol, substantiating the bioavailability of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans in the wood shavings."1.28Dioxin intoxication from chronic exposure of horses to pentachlorophenol-contaminated wood shavings.
