Hello all,

my last comment on cadmium skin absorption

for the lady (Mitsuru Cope) who asked a question on skin absorption

a few months ago.

"Primary control should focus on inhalation although cadmium also can =
cause toxic effects after ingestion.

Cadmium is not absorbed through the skin. (OSHA, revision date =
05/04/2000)"
