Thallium: Toxicity and Detoxification Overview by Carolina Herrera is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Thallium (Tl) is a highly toxic heavy metal that poses serious health risks, causing various diseases and potentially leading to death. It is used in medical imaging but can also be found in the environment due to industrial activities, leading to human exposure through contaminated food and water. Detoxification therapies, including the use of Prussian blue and phytoremediation techniques, are explored to mitigate Tl toxicity and its environmental impact.
