| Research Abstract |
Pulmonary toxicity of indium compounds was studied using experimental animals via intermittent intratracheal instillations. The pulmonary toxic potencies of these indium compounds to the respiratory organs were provisionally estimated to be in the following order : indium hydroxide, nano sized-indium tin oxide, indium-tin oxide target, indium oxide. Moreover, cupper-indium-gallium-selenium (CIGS) thin film solar cell particles caused pulmonary damages when instilled intratracheally into rats.
