“…The mercury compounds are generally used in dry-cell batteries, fluorescent bulbs, arc lamps, mirrors, and in the extraction of gold and silver from ores, thermometers, dental amalgam fillings and vaccine preserver. [87][88][89][90][91] Thimerosal (ethylmercurithiosalicylic acid) is a mercury-containing compound and a preservative for the vaccine and biological products for more than 70 years. Thimerosal dissociates as 49.5% ethylmercury by weight and thiosalicylic acid and may possess higher cytotoxicity on renal cells.…”

“…The toxic effects of Pb have been known for centuries and all exposures result from human activities. Lead is easily absorbed through gastrointestinal and respiratory tract, and distributed to soft tissues and finally bones where it is stored over decade [13][14]. When Pb is ingested by food or water, 10-15 % of taken quantity is absorbed by gastrointestinal system of adults and this ratio increases up to 50 % for children [15].…”

Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are well-known risk factors for peripheral arterial and some other cardiovascular diseases. The aim of the study was to determine the level of both toxic metals, in the human heart tissue and compare the accumulation to their age, gender, body mass index, living environment and smoking habit. Heart tissues of the 112 autopsy cases, representing a sample set of population living in capital city of Turkey: Ankara Province (both in city center and suburban), were collected from Turkey Ministry of Justice, Council of Forensic Medicine in Ankara Branch. Lead and cadmium analysis was carried out by Graphite Furnace Atomic Spectrometry technique. Cd/Pb results and individuals' information were assessed by SPSS statistically. Average value of Pb was found as 1374.99±237.01ppb and Cd was found as 287.54±66.43ppb in all heart tissue samples. Consideration of metal levels in autopsy heart tissues by age, statistically significant positive correlation in Cd was observed (p<0.05). There was no correlation found between metal levels with gender and BMI values. Both Pb and Cd levels of the samples who lived in urban was significantly greater than in suburban areas (p<0.05). Significant increase Cd level were observed in smokers' heart tissues (p<0.05), however, contrary to expectations, Pb has no statistically significant result.

MOTS-CLEFS : CLASSIFICATION, INDICATIONS ET COMPOSITIONS DES ALLIAGES DENTAIRES NON PRÉCIEUXLes alliages dentaires « base métal » ou alliages non pré-cieux comprennent moins de 25 % en poids de métaux nobles. Il n'existe aucune classification officielle. En France, la classification utilisée reprend celle des normes internationales (NF EN ISO 1562, 8891 et 9693).On peut distinguer 5 grandes familles :Alliages à base nickel (NiCr, NiCrBe, NiCrMo) ou « superalliages » Interdits dans certains pays européens, ils sont remis en cause par leur toxicité, le potentiel allergisant du nickel avec des inquiétudes sur leur biocompatibilité.Alliages à base cobalt (CoCr, CoCrMo, CoCrW, CoCrNiMo) ou « stellite »
