Again, many of these products contain Parabens, Phthalates, and Sulfates. A group of scientists created an easy way to check to see if your products are safe to use. For cosmetic products, they offer important information through EWG's Skin Deep. [13] There is also one provided for household cleaning products known as, EWG's Guide to Healthy ...
Xenon-129 is currently being used as a visualization agent in MRI scans. When a patient inhales hyperpolarized xenon-129 ventilation and gas exchange in the lungs can be imaged and quantified. Unlike xenon-133, xenon-129 is non-ionizing and is safe to be inhaled with no adverse effects. [182]
