THE MECHANISM OF THE EFFECT OF BERYLLIUM ON THE ORGANISM,
Abstract
The mechanism of the effect of beryllium on the organism is summed up as follows: (1) Even in a complex with homologous protein beryllium (chloride, sulfate or oxide) does not evoke the formation of humoral antibodies or allergy of the anaphylactic shock type. (2) Subcutaneous injection of soluble beryllium salts leads to the development of an inflammatory reaction after 1-2 days; repeated injections can amplify its manifestation. The complex of beryllium plus protein has less expressed primary toxic effect than beryllium alone. (Author)
