Abstract

The article presents the results of research into the physical, chemical and toxicological properties of metallo-organic compound dimethylcadmium. Through functional, morphologic and biochemical technique, in acute, pre-acute and chronic experiments on animals, established were the major toxicometric parametres, the substance's action on the blood system, respiration, functioning of the kidney, the liver, the CNS and the gonads. The data showed that, if inhaled, dimethylcadmium was more toxic than the other cadmium non-organic compounds, being a polythropic poisonous substance with particular damaging effects on the kidney, the liver, the CNS and the respiratory organs. The MAC for dimethylcadmium concentrations in the working zone air was proposed at 0.001/0.005 mg/m3.
