Phenol and its vapors are corrosive to the eyes, the skin, and the respiratory tract. [60] Its corrosive effect on skin and mucous membranes is due to a protein-degenerating effect. [49] Repeated or prolonged skin contact with phenol may cause dermatitis, or even second and third-degree burns. [61] Inhalation of phenol vapor may cause lung ...

The men took the treatment for 36 weeks. Surprisingly, 5% minoxidil was found to be more effective than 10% minoxidil. Guys who used the 5% solution saw more hair growth around the hairline and ...
A 2008 review of animal research found that low-dose BPA maternal exposure can cause long-term consequences for the neurobehavioral development in mice. [58] A 2008 review of studies concluded that BPA altered long-term potentiation in the hippocampus and even nanomolar (10 −9 mol) dosage could induce significant effects on memory processes. [59]
In 1834, German chemist Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge discovered a phenol, also known as carbolic acid, which he derived in an impure form from coal tar.In August 1865, Joseph Lister applied a piece of lint dipped in carbolic acid solution to the wound of an eleven-year-old boy at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, who had sustained a compound fracture after a cart wheel had passed over his leg.
