We compare beryllium to H+ and show that beryllium can displace H+ in many "strong hydrogen bonds" where Be as a "tetrahedral proton" (O-Be-O angle is tetrahedral as opposed to the nearly linear O-H-O angle) is thermodynamically preferred. The strong

During the last decade, there have been concerted efforts to reduce beryllium (Be) exposure in the workplace and thereby reduce potential cases of this occupational lung disorder. Despite these efforts, it is estimated that there are at least one million

Critical reviews in toxicology, 39 Suppl 1, 1-32 (2009-11-13)
The potential carcinogenicity of beryllium has been a topic of study since the mid-1940s. Since then, numerous scientific and regulatory bodies have assigned beryllium to various categories with respect to its carcinogenicity. Past epidemiologic and animal studies, however, have been

The relevance of beryllium sensitization testing for occupational health practice and prevention is unclear. To analyse the natural course of beryllium sensitization and clarify the prognosis following cessation of exposure among sensitized workers. An electronic literature search was conducted in

This review aims to present the clinician with a synthesis of recent studies that have enhanced our understanding of the epidemiology and pathogenesis of beryllium hypersensitivity (BeH) and chronic beryllium disease (CBD). Lower occupational limit levels to beryllium exposure and
