Symptoms of chronic bismuth toxicity in humans consists of decreased appetite, weakness,
rheumatic pain, diarrhea, fever, metal line on the gums, foul breathe, gingivitis, and
dermatitis. Jaundice and conjunctival hemorrhage are rare, but have been reported.
Bismuth nephropathy with proteinuria may occur. The kidney is the site of highest
concentration with the liver being considerably lower. Bismuth does pass into the amniotic
fluid and into the fetus., Prolonged exposure to iodides may produce iodism in sensitive
individuals. Symptoms of exposure include: skin rash, running nose, headache and
irritation of the mucous membrane. For severe cases the skin may show pimples, boils,
hives, blisters and black and blue spots. Iodides are readily diffused across the placenta.
Neonatal deaths from respiratory distress secondary to goiter have been reported. Iodides
have been known to cause drug-induced fevers, which are usually of short duration.,
Material is extremely destructive to tissue of the mucous membranes and upper respiratory
tract, eyes, and skin., Cough, Shortness of breath

About Ultra Dry Bismuth Iodide

Iodide IonAmerican Elements specializes in producing Bismuth Iodide in an ultra dry form for use as a compound in semiconductors and other High Purity applications. Ultra Dry Bismuth Iodide is generally immediately available in most volumes. High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered. Iodide compounds are used in internal medicine. Treating an iodide with manganese dioxide and sulfuric acid sublimes the iodine. American Elements produces to many standard grades when applicable, including Mil Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade, USP and EP/BP (European Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia) and follows applicable ASTM testing standards. Typical and custom packaging is available. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available as is a Reference Calculator for converting relevant units of measurement.

Related Elements

Bismuth

See more Bismuth products. Bismuth (atomic symbol: Bi, atomic number: 83) is a Block P, Group 15, Period 6 element with an atomic radius of 208.98040. The number of electrons in each of Bismuth's shells is 2, 8, 18, 32, 18, 5 and its electron configuration is [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s2 6p3. Bismuth Bohr ModelThe bismuth atom has a radius of 156 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 207 pm. In its elemental form, bismuth is a silvery white brittle metal. Bismuth is the most diamagnetic of all metals and, with the exception of mercury, its thermal conductivity is lower than any other metal. Elemental BismuthBismuth has a high electrical resistance, and has the highest Hall Effect of any metal (i.e., greatest increase in electrical resistance when placed in a magnetic field). Bismuth is found in bismuthinite and bismite. It is also produced as a byproduct of lead, copper, tin, molybdenum and tungsten extraction. Bismuth was first discovered by Early Man. The name Bismuth originates from the German word 'wissmuth,' meaning white mass.

Iodine

See more Iodine products. Iodine (atomic symbol: I, atomic number: 53) is a Block P, Group 17, Period 5 element with an atomic radius of 126.90447. The number of electrons in each of Iodine's shells is 2, 8, 18, 18, 7 and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p5. The iodine atom has a radius of 140 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 198 pm. In its elemental form, iodine has a lustrous metallic gray appearance as a solid and a violet appearance as a gas or liquid solution. Elemental IodineIodine forms compounds with many elements, but is less active than the other halogens. It dissolves readily in chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, or carbon disulfide. Iodine compounds are important in organic chemistry and very useful in the field of medicine. Iodine was discovered and first isolated by Bernard Courtois in 1811. The name Iodine is derived from the Greek word "iodes" meaning violet.
