Carbon monoxide in intensive care medicine—time to start the therapeutic application?!
Intensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2020 Carbon monoxide (CO) is not only known as a toxic gas due to its characteristics as an odorless molecule and its rapid binding to haem-containing molecules, thus inhibiting the respiratory chain in cells resulting in hypoxia.

Critical Care Clinics, 1999 Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is common and frequently unrecognized since the signs and symptoms are relatively nonspecific. CO poisoning causes tissue hypoxia. Additionally, various animal studies have demonstrated that CO interferes with myoglobin, P450, and other enzyme function; causes lipid peroxidation through neutrophil activation; produces ...

CO2: A Small Ubiquitous Molecule With a Lot of Astrochemical Debate Attached
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020 Water, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are the most abundant molecules in the condensed phase of interstellar dust grains. Water is formed by hydrogenation of oxygen species adsorbed on the surface of dust grains, while carbon monoxide is formed by ...

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1991 Carbon monoxide is a common domestic and industrial poison which may be lethal. Survivors can develop permanent neuropsychiatric disability. The mechanisms of toxicity are poorly understood and the traditional criteria used to determine the severity of the poisoning have low predictability. Oxygen is the recommended antidote to carbon monoxide, but it

Atmospheric carbon monoxide oxidation is a widespread mechanism supporting microbial survival
The ISME Journal, 2019 Carbon monoxide (CO) is a ubiquitous atmospheric trace gas produced by natural and anthropogenic sources. Some aerobic bacteria can oxidize atmospheric CO and, collectively, they account for the net loss of ~250 teragrams of CO from the atmosphere each ...

Web Based Information System of Carbon Monoxide Pollution
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 In Indonesia, carbon monoxide is one of which type of gas used as a parameter in the air pollution. Unfortunately, reporting and monitoring air pollution in Indonesia is regulated in government rules and reported once a day.

Scientifica, 2016 Objective. This study examined the hypothesis that correlations exist between the carbon monoxide exposure time and the carboxyhemoglobin concentration at the site of carbon monoxide poisoning, using a pulse carbon monoxide oximeter in rural areas or the

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 2001 The deadly effect of carbon monoxide was known as long ago as Greek and Roman times, when the gas was used for executions1. In 1857 Claude Bernard postulated that its noxious effect was caused by reversible displacement of oxygen from haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin2.

Carbon monoxide exposure inside UK road vehicles: a pilot study
Environment InternationalEnvironmental CO presents a risk to public health. The effects of chronic low-level CO exposure are well-documented, with pregnant women, the unborn and children being particularly vulnerable. Although a number of studies have investigated the phenomenon,
