Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of poly-acrylic acid (PAA) copper iodide (CuI) adhesives on bond degradation, tensile strength, and biocompatibility. METHODS PAA-CuI particles were incorporated into Optibond XTR, Optibond Solo and XP Bond in 0.1 and 0.5mg/ml. Clearfil SE Protect, an MDPB-containing adhesive, was used as control. The adhesives were applied to human dentin, polymerized and restored with composite in 2mm-increments. Resin-dentin beams (0.9±0.1mm2) were evaluated for micro-tensile bond strength after 24h, 6 months and 1year. Hourglass specimens (10×2×1mm) were evaluated for ultimate tensile strength (UTS). Cell metabolic function of human gingival fibroblast cells exposed to adhesive discs (8×1mm) was assessed with MTT assay. Copper release from adhesive discs (5×1mm) was evaluated with UV-vis spectrophotometer after immersion in 0.9% NaCl for 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 21 and 30 days. SEM, EDX and XRF were conducted for microstructure characterization. RESULTS XTR and Solo did not show degradation when modified with PAA-CuI regardless of the concentration. The UTS for adhesives containing PAA-CuI remained unaltered relative to the controls. The percent viable cells were reduced for Solo 0.5mg/ml and XP 0.1 or 0.5mg/ml PAA-CuI. XP demonstrated the highest ion release. For all groups, the highest release was observed at days 1 and 14. SIGNIFICANCE PAA-CuI particles prevented the bond degradation of XTR and Solo after 1year without an effect on the UTS for any adhesive. Cell viability was affected for some adhesives. A similar pattern of copper release was demonstrated for all adhesives.

Abstract
Nickel is an essential element for at least several animal species. These animal studies associate nickel deprivation with depressed growth, reduced reproductive rates, and alterations of serum lipids and glucose. Although there is substantial evidence of an essential status for nickel in animals, a deficiency state in humans has not been clearly defined. Nickel is a silver-white metal with siderophilic properties that facilitate the formation of nickel-iron alloys. In contrast to the soluble nickel salts (chloride, nitrate, sulfate), metallic nickel, nickel sulfides, and nickel oxides are poorly water-soluble. Nickel carbonyl is a volatile liquid at room temperature that decomposes rapidly into carbon monoxide and nickel. Drinking water and food are the main sources of exposure for the general population with the average American diet containing about 300 micrograms Ni/d. Nickel is highly mobile in soil, particularly in acid soils. There is little evidence that nickel compounds accumulate in the food chain. Nickel is not a cumulative toxin in animals or in humans. Almost all cases of acute nickel toxicity result from exposure to nickel carbonyl. The initial effects involve irritation of the respiratory tract and nonspecific symptoms. Patients with severe poisoning develop intense pulmonary and gastrointestinal toxicity. Diffuse interstitial pneumonitis and cerebral edema are the main cause of death. Sodium diethyldithiocarbamate is an investigational drug used to chelate nickel following exposure to nickel carbonyl. Nickel is a common sensitizing agent with a high prevalence of allergic contact dermatitis. Nickel and nickel compounds are well-recognized carcinogens. However, the identity of the nickel compound or compounds, which cause the increased risk of cancer, remains unclear. Currently, there are little epidemiological data to indicate that exposure to metallic nickel increases the risk of cancer, or that exposure to the carcinogenic forms of nickel causes cancer outside the lung and the nasal cavity.

Abstract
This paper presents an organized system for element-specific sample collection and handling of human blood (whole blood, serum or plasma, packed cells or erythrocytes) and urine also indicating a proper definition of the subject and sample. Harmonized procedures for collection, preparation, analysis and quality control are suggested. The aim is to assist scientists worldwide to produce comparable data which will be useful on a regional, national and international scale. The guidelines are directed to the elements aluminium, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, copper, lead, lithium, manganese, mercury, nickel, selenium and zinc. These include the most important elements measured for their occupational or clinical significance, and serve as examples of principles that will guide development of methods for other elements in the future.

Abstract
We analyzed blood and urine specimens from 32 charter boat captains, anglers, and spouses from both groups, who reportedly ate fish from Lakes Michigan, Huron, or Erie, for selected environmental toxicants. The toxicants measured in serum were polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls, other polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and persistent pesticides. Nonpersistent pesticides and elements were measured in urine; and elements were measured in blood. Internal dose levels of these toxicants will be compared to reference range data that we have compiled. These reference range data will be used to ascertain the exposure status of individuals or groups within this study.

Abstract
Cobalt determinations in biological fluids are of great interest in biological or toxicological research programs. Cobalturia is often chosen as an indicator for a biological monitoring program in occupational exposure to cobalt dusts. The method described here derives from the IUPAC reference method for nickel determination. It enables cobaltemia and cobalturia to be measured in small samples (1 mL). The mean usual values for cobalt in biological fluids are very low (2.7 nmol L-1 for serum and 6.7 nmol L-1 for urine), and therefore, thus require an analytical procedure with preconcentration and extraction. The sample is mineralized by wet acid digestion. After digestion, inorganic cobalt is extracted in form of ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate complex into isobutyl methyl ketone and measured in the organic layer by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The analytical parameters are described in detail. The extraction output is about 99%. The detection limits are 1.93 and 1.89 nmol L-1 for serum and urine, respectively. Sensitivity (expressed as the concentration that gives a 0.044 absorbance) is 3.4 nmol L-1 for serum and 3.3 nmol L-1 for urine. Within-run precision ranged between 3.9 and 2.5% (coefficients of variation) for serum and 4.2 and 1.1% for urine, at 87 and 136 nmol L-1 levels, respectively. Between-run precision ranged between 4.3 and 3.3% (coefficients of variation) for serum and 4.2 and 2.3% for urine, at 87 and 136 nmol L-1 levels, respectively. At very low concentration, 5.7 nmol L-1 for serum and 2.5 nmol L-1 for urine, the between-run precision is, respectively, 19.5 and 28%. Linearity is effective between 0 and 272 nmol L-1. Interferences and matrix effects are negligible for urine, serum, or plasma samples without hemoglobin. The method is easily applicable for routine determinations.

Abstract
Trientine((R)) is not an effective drug for the treatment of intractable hand dermatitis in nickel-sensitive patients. In a controlled, double-blind study this chelator, on oral administration, failed to stimulate nickel excretion. Early morning urine samples from two groups of nine patients were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in a stabilized Temperature Platform Furnace equipped with Zeeman background correction. Group 1 patients received placebo for 6 wk, then a 4-wk rest before crossover. Group 2 received the drug in the first period. No difference in Ni levels between the placebo period and the drug period in either group was demonstrated, nor was there any significant improvement in the hand eczema.Copper was measured in the same urine samples using the same instrumentation, but with atomization off the wall. There was a considerable increase in copper excretion during the drug treatment period. Group 1 excreted a mean 538±378 (SD) μg/L, which represented a mean increase of 787±653 % (SD). Group 2 excreted a mean 960±410 (SD) μg/L; a mean difference of 630±398 % (SD). It was concluded that the use of Trientine((R)) in subjects of normal copper status should be carefully controlled and monitored.

Abstract
Nickel concentrations in human tissues and gallbladder bile were determined by analysis of postmortem specimens from ten consecutive autopsies of adult persons. The tissue samples were collected and homogenized with precautions to avoid nickel contamination and were analyzed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrophotometry with Zeemann background correction. In decreasing order of mean nickel concentrations, the following results were obtained (mean and range, microgram/kg dry weight, N = 7-10): lung 173 (71-371), thyroid 141 (41-240), adrenal 132 (53-241), kidney 62 (19-171), heart 54 (10-110), liver 50 (11-102), brain 44 (20-65), spleen 37 (9-95), and pancreas 34 (7-71). In five specimens of gallbladder bile, nickel concentrations averaged 2.3 +/- 0.8 micrograms/l (range 1.5-3.3). These data furnish reference values for use in evaluating tissue nickel concentrations in persons with occupational exposures to nickel, provide the first demonstration that nickel concentrations in thyroid and adrenal glands are approximately equal to those in lung and are higher than in other organs, and suggest that biliary excretion may be a significant route for the elimination of nickel in humans.

Abstract
Simple direct dilution methods are described for the analysis of urinary chromium and nickel with electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The day-to-day variation of the methods is in the order of 5%, and the detection limits 20 and 0.1 nmol/l (1.2 and 0.0052 micrograms/l) for urinary nickel and chromium, respectively. At levels corresponding to occupational exposures, both metals are stable (within 20%) in urine specimens in the refrigerator for the least ten months. The stability does not require acidification. Geometric mean values for urinary nickel and chromium in the non exposed population in Finland (n = 299 and 155) are 70 and 1.5 nmol/l (4.8 and 0.078 micrograms/l), and the upper 95% confidence limits from a log-normal distribution, are 170 and 11 nmol/l (10 and 0.57 micrograms/l), respectively.

Abstract
Measurements of nickel in body fluids, excreta, and tissues from humans with occupational, environmental, and iatrogenic exposures to nickel compounds are comprehensively reviewed. Correlations between levels of human exposures to various classes of nickel compounds via inhalation, oral, or parenteral routes and the corresponding concentrations of nickel in biological samples are critically evaluated. The major conclusions include the following points: Measurements of nickel concentrations in body fluids, especially urine and serum, provide meaningful insights into the extent of nickel exposures, provided these data are interpreted with knowledge of the exposure routes, sources, and durations, the chemical identities and physical-chemical properties of the nickel compounds, and relevant clinical and physiological information, such as renal function. Nickel concentrations in body fluids should not, at present, be viewed as indicators of specific health risks, except in persons exposed to nickel carbonyl, for whom urine nickel concentrations provide prognostic guidance on the severity of the poisoning. In persons exposed to soluble nickel compounds (e.g., NiCl2, NiSO4), nickel concentrations in body fluids are generally proportional to exposure levels; absence of increased values usually indicates non-significant exposure; presence of increased values should be a signal to reduce the exposure. In persons exposed to less soluble nickel compounds (e.g., Ni3S2,NiO), increased concentrations of nickel in body fluids are indicative of significant nickel absorption and should be a signal to reduce the exposures to the lowest levels attainable with available technology; absence of increased values does not necessarily indicate freedom from the health risks (e.g., cancers of lung and nasal cavities) associated with exposures to certain relatively insoluble nickel compounds.

Abstract
Ten manual metal arc (MMA) high alloy stainless steel (SS) welders were studied during one week and the concentrations of chromium (Cr) and nickel (Ni) were determined in their urine and blood. Stationary and personal air samples were collected from the immediate work environment; they covered the entire work period. Spot urine samples were collected during the follow-up period. Whole blood and plasma samples were taken from the workers before and after one shift, and the retention rate of magnetic dust in the lungs was estimated with magnetopneumography. On the basis of the results, indices of short-term exposure to Cr and Ni were evaluated. Urinary Cr and Ni concentrations (corrected to creatinine) reflect both the body burden caused by long-term and short-term exposure to easily soluble fractions of these metals. The results indicated that the use of Cr and Ni urinary analyses as indices of short-term exposure is not as dependable as previously assumed. The Cr and Ni concentrations in whole blood and plasma did not correlate with the measured exposure, but the daily mean increase in the Cr concentration reflected exposure to total Cr and Cr(VI) very well. The large variation in the Cr concentration of the morning urine (0.01-2.7 mumol/1) and blood (0.05-1.43 mumol/1) indicated large personal variations of body burden among the exposed welders. The retention rate of magnetic dust in the lungs correlated well (P less than 0.01) with the daily mean increase of Cr in blood. Very good correlations (P less than 0.001) were found between the retention rate of magnetic dust and the personal air samples of Cr and Cr(VI).
