Evidence of Hexavalent Chromium Ingestion

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2003
Abstract We describe the application of histochemical demonstration of chromium in a case of fatal ingestion of potassium dichromate in a suicide attempt. Using 2-(8-quinolylazo)-4,5-di-p-tolylimidazole (QTI), we could demonstrate chromium in the erythrocyte of the victim, in situ.

Dermatological Toxicity of Hexavalent Chromium

Critical Reviews in Toxicology, 2007
Hexavalent chromium causes two types of dermatological toxicities: allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) and skin ulcers. This report reviews the etiology, prevalence, pathology, dose-response, and prognosis of both of these reactions. Reports in the literature indicate that repeated exposure to hexavalent chromium in concentrations of 4-25 ppm can both ...

Chromium Isotopes and the Fate of Hexavalent Chromium in the Environment

Science, 2002
Measurements of chromium (Cr) stable-isotope fractionation in laboratory experiments and natural waters show that lighter isotopes reacted preferentially during Cr(VI) reduction by magnetite and sediments. The 53 Cr/ 52 Cr ratio of the product was 3.4 ± 0.1 per mil less than that of the ...

Hexavalent chromium disrupts chromatin architecture

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2021
Accessibility of DNA elements and the orchestration of spatiotemporal chromatin-chromatin interactions are critical mechanisms in the regulation of gene transcription. Thus, in an ever-changing milieu, cells mount an adaptive response to environmental stimuli by modulating gene expression that is orchestrated by coordinated changes in chromatin ...

Inactivation of Hexavalent Chromium

Archives of Dermatology, 1962
Inactivation of chromium ion in allergic eczematous dermatitis with an antichrome agent was demonstrated by patch test studies in chromate-sensitive patients. 1,2 The purpose of this paper is to report on the stability of our antichrome agent in solutions and ointment bases, on the removal of hexavalent chromium from various materials, and on ...

Hexavalent chromium reduction by gallic acid

Chemosphere, 2021
Cr(VI) is widely used in industry and often large quantities have been accidently or due to lack of precautions released at the environment. The presence of high concentrations of Cr(VI) in waste streams causes concern due to its toxicity and solubility. However the Cr(III) is a useful micronutrient in human diet.

Avoiding Hexavalent Chromium

Fastening and Assembly Solutions and Technology, 2022
The Academy Award-nominated film ‘Erin Brockovich’ (2000) tells the true story of a woman who fought a utility company that was polluting the water supply of the surrounding community with a cancer-causing chemical waste compound. Over two decades later, that same substance is still used as a rust-inhibiting plating on industrial fasteners, according ...

In vivo production of hexavalent chromium

Biomaterials, 1984
Abstract Surgical implants which contain chromium result in increased in vivo concentrations. The oxidation chemistry of this reaction is considered.
