Download or read book Fluoride in Drinking Water written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-01-22 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people associate fluoride with the practice of intentionally adding fluoride to public drinking water supplies for the prevention of tooth decay. However, fluoride can also enter public water systems from natural sources, including runoff from the weathering of fluoride-containing rocks and soils and leaching from soil into groundwater. Fluoride pollution from various industrial emissions can also contaminate water supplies. In a few areas of the United States fluoride concentrations in water are much higher than normal, mostly from natural sources. Fluoride is one of the drinking water contaminants regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) because it can occur at these toxic levels. In 1986, the EPA established a maximum allowable concentration for fluoride in drinking water of 4 milligrams per liter, a guideline designed to prevent the public from being exposed to harmful levels of fluoride. Fluoride in Drinking Water reviews research on various health effects from exposure to fluoride, including studies conducted in the last 10 years.

Book excerpt: Abstract: Research results concerning aspects of iron (Fe) bioavailability from various foods and interactions of Fe with other nutrients are reported by experts for nutritionists and food and agricultural chemists. Several areas address the determination of available Fe in foods, changes in Fe availability caused by food processing, physiochemical food properties affecting Fe chemstry, and food additives that either enhance or inhibit Fe intake. Therelationship of ascorbic acid in aiding Fe absorption is discussed, as is the inhibitory action of dietary fiber. Twoimportant human nutrition aspects cover Fe availability in human milk, and the differences in Fe utilization between vegetarians and omnivores. When careful choice is made of food combinations, food additives, and proper processing methods, humans can utilize a greater portion of the Fe in low-energy foods. (wz).

This book was released on 1995-02-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years since the third edition of this indispensable reference was published, a great deal has been learned about the nutritional requirements of common laboratory species: rat, mouse, guinea pig, hamster, gerbil, and vole. The Fourth Revised Edition presents the current expert understanding of the lipid, carbohydrate, protein, mineral, vitamin, and other nutritional needs of these animals. The extensive use of tables provides easy access to a wealth of comprehensive data and resource information. The volume also provides an expanded background discussion of general dietary considerations. In addition to a more user-friendly organization, new features in this edition include: A significantly expanded section on dietary requirements for rats, reporting substantial new findings. A new section on nutrients that are not required but that may produce beneficial results. New information on growth and reproductive performance among the most commonly used strains of rats and mice and on several hamster species. An expanded discussion of diet formulation and preparationâ€"including sample diets of both purified and natural ingredients. New information on mineral deficiency and toxicity, including warning signs. This authoritative resource will be important to researchers, laboratory technicians, and manufacturers of laboratory animal feed.

Download or read book Inorganic Fluoride Propellant Oxidizers written by D. J. Reed and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certain inorganic fluorides were reviewed for their chemical, physical and toxicological properties. The compounds are nitrogen trifluoride; tetrafluorohydrazine; chlorine trifluoride; bromine pentafluoride; oxygen difluoride; hydrogen fluoride, and fluorine. Seeds and seedlings of bean, corn, pea, squash and sudan grass were exposed to air or water mixture of these compounds. Exposure of dry seeds to a gaseous 100% NF3 atmosphere for 1 to 8 hours caused inhibition of subsequent germination depending on the seed species. Exposure of seeds to a 10% N2F4 atmosphere for 1 hour completely inhibited germination of all five species of seeds. Exposure of dry seeds to less than 500 ppm of either bromine pentafluoride or chlorine trifluoride in air drastically reduced their subsequent germination even when the exposure time was for less than one hour. Exposures of plant seedlings to gaseous ClF3 in air at 500 and 2,000 ppm for 5 minutes resulted in extensive destruction of the plants; bromine pentafluoride-air mixtures were even more damaging than ClF3 atmospheres. Concentrations of N2F4 or NF3 up to 10,000 ppm in air were required to cause visible damage of plant seedlings after a 30 to 60 minute exposure period. Plant injury was caused by irrigation of plant seedlings with solutions formed by the reaction of ClF3 or BrF5 with water. The exposed seeds and seedlings were analyzed for fluoride content. The equipment and methods used for these exposures is described.
