Dermal and inhalable cobalt exposure—Uptake of cobalt for workers at Swedish hard metal plants
PURPOSE: Cobalt exposure is known to cause adverse effects on health. A major use of cobalt is in the manufacture of hard metal. Exposure can lead to asthma, hard metal lung disease, contact allergy and increased risk of cancer. Cobalt is mainly absorbed from the pulmonary tract, however penetration...
