STUDIES ON THE REACTION OF HIGH-DOSE HYDROXOCOBALAMIN AND ASCORBIC ACID WITH CARBON MONOXIDE: IMPLICATIONS FOR TREATMENT OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
… hydroxocobalamin should be capable of producing carbon dioxide (CO2) from carbon monoxide (CO) in blood, and that this conversion should be detectable. Using resonance raman spectroscopy we demonstrated that a mixture of hydroxocobalamin and ascorbic acid could create the reduced form of …

Wearable Pulse Oximetry in Construction Environments
… the blood gases of construction workers for carbon monoxide exposure via pulse oximetry. In particular, this study sought to understand the impact of motion artifacts caused by the worker's activities and to determine if those activities would prevent the blood gas sensor from detecting the …

Interactions Between Heme-Globins and Ligands
… than hemoglobin.7 Ngb also tightly binds to carbon monoxide (CO) with an association rate that is 500x faster than hemoglobin.8 Computational simulations and physical investigations were utilized to analyze the structure and kinetics of neuroglobin and the characteristics causing these …

Carboxylic Acid Hydrodeoxygenation over Supported Noble Metal Catalysts
… that lead to a myriad of undesired products. Decarbonylation (DCN) is the most selective pathway over Pt catalysts, while both DCN and methanation chemistries are heavily dominant over Ru catalysts. The high selectivity to DCN products for both catalysts snowballs into the second issue which is …

Development of mouse models of hydrogen sulfide-induced neurotoxicity for the evaluation of neuroprotective strategies
… leading to acute death within minutes. H2S poisoning is a leading cause of occupational deaths. Among toxic gases, H2S follows only carbon monoxide poisoning as a leading cause of death. There is also concern for this chemical to weaponized as it is easy to make from household chemicals …

Estimating Health Risks Associated With Flooding Following Hurricane Harvey Using Earth Observations and the CDC Social Vulnerability Index
… with an increase in ED visits related to carbon monoxide poisoning, insect bites, dehydration, hypothermia, intestinal infectious diseases, and pregnancy complications during the flood period. The average rate of ED visits related to pregnancy complications and insect bites were greater …

Occupant tenability in large-scale residential fires: an analysis of heat exposure, toxic gases, water application, and fire-service ventilation
… heat (radiative and convective) and toxic gases (carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen cyanide) on occupants in the fire environments. The large-scale experiments also studied the influence of different firefighting ventilation and water application techniques. The first large-scale study …
