Scope and Contents

Contents

The four gases, nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) all readily inhibit oxygen consumption by mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase. This inhibition is responsible for much of their toxicity when they are applied externally to the body. However, recently these gases have all been implicated, to grea...
