PARKINSONISM SECONDARY TO ETHYLENE OXIDE EXPOSURE

Parkinsonism secondary to ethylene oxide exposure

Ethylene oxide is a gas widely used in the production of industrial chemicals.It is also used to sterilize heat-sensitive medical supplies.Previous reports of acute and chronic exposure have described neurotoxic effects like peripheral neuropathy and cognitive impairment.We describe a pure parkinsonian syndrome following acute ethylene oxide intoxi

Tests of ionization chambers for future photofission experiments*

A recent set-up of a multi-cathode Frisch-grid ionization chamber and experimental results of a proof-of-principle experiment are presented.Preliminary data on the obtained polar angular and mass distributions as well SPORT PROTEIN CHOCOLATE as total kinetic energy of fission fragments produced in neutron-induced fission of 232Th and 238U are discu
