While Aerrane isoflurane is widely regarded as safe, there are still important clinical considerations to bear in mind. Patients with a history of malignant hyperthermia or hypersensitivity to halogenated anesthetics may experience adverse reactions when exposed to isoflurane. Additionally, careful monitoring of respiratory function is required, as isoflurane can cause respiratory depression, particularly in patients with pre-existing pulmonary conditions.
One of the key objectives of chemical dosing in water treatment is to adjust the pH levels of water. Acidic or alkaline water can be corrosive or lead to the leaching of harmful metals from pipes. Common chemicals used for pH adjustment include sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) for raising pH and sulfuric acid for lowering it. Maintaining the proper pH range (typically between 6.5 and 8.5) is crucial for optimal water quality and safety.
