| Abstract |
With reference to the literature, the author discusses the biological activity, general toxic potential, allergenicity and carcinogenicity of trivalent chromium compounds. Trivalent chromium ions can also be taken up by the body and produce disease and malignomata. Consequently it is not possible to dismiss a casual relationship between typical pathological signs and symptoms and occupational exposure to trivalent chromium compounds. |
