Abstract
A 20% solution of hydrofluoric acid (HF) was applied to the skin of rats and a biomedical observation of the tissues and sera was made. Flushing with running water was effective for HF burns. By applying 2.5% calcium gluconate jelly, concentrations of fluoride in the urine and the tissues surrounding the injured region were reduced. Thus, the results proved that irrigation with running water and jelly applications were evaluated as the most effective therapy among various methods tested for HF burns.Entities:
