- Hello. I would like
- to ask if someone kwows the minimum levels of exposure to BeO
- and BeCu dust ? I have accidentally (kind of) used BeCU
- to make springs for an experiment, without ever knowing that
- the dust of Be is also carcinogenic. Is it that there is
- a minimum exposure level ?
-
- Are the effects of Be chronic ? In other words do Be
- atoms mutilate cells continuously in the human organism
- or is there a decay in the action ? Can our body
- get rid of Be in some way ?
-

- Thank you
