Estimation of the risk of local and systemic effects in infants after ingestion of low-concentrated weak acids from descaling products Open

Arjen Koppen, Claudine C. Hunault, Regina G.D.M. van Kleef, Agnes G. van Velzen, Remco H.S. Westerink , et al. · 2021

Commercially available electric kettle descaling products may pose a health risk to infants in case of accidental ingestion since the pH of some of these products can be very low, even when diluted 10-times or in the presence of baby milk …

Is secondary chemical exposure of hospital personnel of clinical importance? Open

R. de Groot, Gerard A. Van Zoelen, Marianne E. C. Leenders, Antoinette van Riel, Irma de Vries , et al. · 2021

The risk of secondary contamination and subsequent toxicity in hospital personnel decontaminating or treating chemically contaminated patients is small. Normal hygienic precautions (gloves and water-resistant gown) will adequately protect …

Modeling the effect of succimer (DMSA; dimercaptosuccinic acid) chelation therapy in patients poisoned by lead Open

J.C.H. van Eijkeren, J. Daniël N. Olie, Sally Bradberry, J Allister Vale, Irma de Vries , et al. · 2016

Context: Kinetic models could assist clinicians potentially in managing cases of lead poisoning. Several models exist that can simulate lead kinetics but none of them can predict the effect of chelation in lead poisoning. Our aim wa…
