Bromodichloromethane is a trihalomethane with formula C H Br Cl 2. It is a colorless, nonflammable liquid which will dissolve in water, or evaporate in air. [ 1 ] Most of the chemical is produced through the chlorine disinfection process , [ 1 ] and as a result it can occur in municipally-treated drinking water. [ 2 ]
Bromochloromethane or methylene bromochloride and Halon 1011 is a mixed halomethane.It is a heavy low-viscosity liquid with refractive index 1.4808.. Halon 1011 was invented for use in fire extinguishers in Germany during the mid-1940s, in an attempt to create a less toxic, more effective alternative to carbon tetrachloride.
Dibromochloromethane was formerly used as a flame retardant and as an intermediate in chemicals manufacturing. Today it is used only as a laboratory reagent.
The EPA limits the total concentration of the four chief constituents (chloroform, bromoform, bromodichloromethane, and dibromochloromethane), referred to as total trihalomethanes (TTHM), to 80 parts per billion in treated water. [6] Traces of chloroform are produced in swimming pools. [7] [8] [9] [10]
1,3-Dichloropropene replaces some of both the fungicide and nematicide effects of BM, but is not a full-efficacy replacement. [11] Methyl isothiocyanate is the breakdown product/a.i. of two applied products, metam sodium and granular dazomet. MITC does not redistribute through the soil as well as BM. Requires significantly more irrigation for ...
Type A: augmented pharmacological effects, which are dose-dependent and predictable [5]; Type A reactions, which constitute approximately 80% of adverse drug reactions, are usually a consequence of the drug's primary pharmacological effect (e.g., bleeding when using the anticoagulant warfarin) or a low therapeutic index of the drug (e.g., nausea from digoxin), and they are therefore predictable.
Women are twice as likely to have an eating disorder in their 40s as to have breast cancer, but midlife eating disorders are under-researched and overlooked.
Chlorinated disinfection agents such as chlorine and monochloramine are strong oxidizing agents introduced into water in order to destroy pathogenic microbes, to oxidize taste/odor-forming compounds, and to form a disinfectant residual so water can reach the consumer tap safe from microbial contamination.
