Its organic form is metabolized by deacylation and eliminated majority thru the feces and urine
Mercury
Exposure to this may come from semiconductors and wood prerservatives
Arsenic
This is metabolized by methylation and eliminated majority thru the kidneys
Arsenic
This confers special properties to alloys and metals

OPIDP
Damages the lung infrastructure that produces the surfactant
NO
Least concern of preventive systems in the workplace
Oral
This relatively insoluble deep lung irritant may cause adult respiratory distress syndrome
Nitrogen oxide
