Potential H₂S Contamination in Imported Dry Wall

New studies have found hydrogen sulfide contaminated dry wall, particularly in recently constructed or removed homes. The presence of traces of hydrogen sulfide in air aggravates breathing, increases the probability of contracting diseases due to bacteria and viruses, reduces the iron in the blood and compromises certain functions of the liver and kidneys.

ChemSee has a simple dosimeter for the detection of Hydrogen Sulfide which may be leaking from dry wall installed in past years. For information on detection of hydrogen sulfide, click here.

Thallium Poisoning in Iraq

The threat of Thallium poisoning has reappeared in Iraq. Once used by Saddam Hussein in the assassination of rivals, the attempted poisoning of several prominent officials of the Baghdad Airforce Club resulted in the death of two young girls, and the hospitalization of nine others (Source: The Guardian, Feb 9, 2008). The amount of Thallium required to poison these individuals on such a large and rapid scale indicates that the perpetrator may have gained access to at least one store of Thallium kept by the late dictator, Hussein.

Thallium can be detected using the API Food Poison Detection Kit. To view more information on this product visit www.ChemSee.com.
