Abstract
Occupational and environmental medicine affords encounters with many unusual toxins, ranging from exotic metals to rocket fuels. Twelve of the most unusual industrial toxins are reviewed here and their clinical manifestations and treatments explored: acetonitrile, acrylonitrile, boron hydrides, dimethylaminopropionitrile, dimethylformamide, hydrazines, methyl isocyanate, 2-nitropropane, phosphine, Stalinon, tellurium, and vanadium.
