| Common Name | Carbon monoxide |
| Description | Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, and highly toxic gas. It is produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds in limited oxygen availability conditions. Carbon monoxide has significant fuel value. It is a major atmospheric pollutant in urban areas, chiefly from exhaust of internal combustion engines, but also from improper burning of various other fuels. (S311) |

| Mechanism of Action | Carbon monoxide possesses a higher affinity than oxygen for hemoglobin, leading to the formation of carboxyhemoglobin, this provoking anoxemia. Carbon monoxide also binds to myoglobin, impairing its ability to utilize oxygen. It can also bind to cytochrome c oxidase, though with a lesser affinity than oxygen. This interferes with aerobic metabolism and efficient ATP synthesis. As a result, cells switch to anaerobic metabolism, causing anoxia, lactic acidosis, and eventual cell death. Carbon monoxide also causes endothelial cell and platelet release of nitric oxide, and the formation of oxygen free radicals. This results in lipid peroxidation, leading to edema and necrosis within the brain. (S312) |

| Uses/Sources | Carbon monoxide is a major atmospheric pollutant in urban areas, chiefly from exhaust of internal combustion engines, but also from improper burning of various other fuels. (S311) |
| Minimum Risk Level | Not Available |
| Health Effects | Chronic exposure to low levels of carbon monoxide may cause persistent headaches, lightheadedness, depression, confusion, memory loss, and nausea and vomiting. (S312) |
| Symptoms | Early symptoms of acute carbon monoxide poisoning are nonspecific and include headaches, nausea, and fatigue. Symptoms may progress to tachycardia and hypertension. The central nervous system is one of the organ systems most sensitive to poisoning and symptoms displayed include dizziness, ataxia, confusion, convulsions, unconsciousness, respiratory arrest, and even death. (S312) |
| Treatment | Carbon monoxide poisoning is first treated by immediate removal from the source of exposure. High-flow or 100% oxygen should then be administered by a nonrebreather reservoir oxygen mask. Oxygen hastens the dissociation of carbon monoxide from hemoglobin, improving tissue oxygenation by reducing carbon monoxides biological half-life. Hyperbaric oxygen may also be used, as it increases carboxyhemoglobin dissociation to a greater extent than normal oxygen. (S312) |
