| Abstract |
The report critically evaluates the biologic and health effects of chromium as reported in the literature up to July 1, 1972. The main areas of discussion are: nuclear, physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of chromium; distribution of chromium in the earth's crust, soil, water, food, nonfood vegetation, and in ambient air; mechanisms by which chromium is absorbed, metabolized, and excreted, deleterious effects of haxavalent chromium compounds on human health; and biologic interactions of chromium and its role in nutrition. Recommendations point out other areas where further research is needed on the environmental aspects of chromium. |
