Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and nonirritating gas produced by the incomplete combustion of any carbon-containing material. Common sources of human exposure include smoke inhalation in fires; automobile exhaust fumes; faulty or poorly ventilated charcoal, kerosene, or gas...
Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and flammable gas that is less dense than air. It is generated from the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons and can be found in motor oil exhaust, furnace or chimney units, and other fuel-generated items. Carbon Monoxide is a leading cause of...

Rosen have calculated the heat of dissociation of carbon monoxide and afterwards the heat of sublimation of carbon. They obtain their figures from the predissociations of the term, and the number of observed vibrational levels of the termof CO. There is, however, still another possibility of ...
Carbon monoxide(CO) is an odorless, colorless gas present in minute quantities in the atmosphere. CO is produced by incomplete combustion of carbon-containing compounds such as wood, hydrocarbons, and coal. Lethal concentrations of CO can be found in the blood of 50% of fire victims,...
Fetal haemoglobin shifts the oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve to the left. Chronic exposure to carbon monoxide in pregnancy causes growth retardation, fetal distress and death. Survivors may have developmental disorders and brain damage. The risk is compounded by smoking in pregnancy. In the first...

Carbon monoxide has a greater affinity for haemoglobin and so displaces oxygen. Carbon dioxide transport in the tissue Carbon dioxide transport in the tissue is summarized in Figure 1. It combines with water to form carbonic acid. This reaction is very slow in plasma but fast within the red ...
