Stannosis is an occupational, non-fibrotic pneumoconiosis caused by chronic exposure and inhalation of tin. [1] Pneumoconiosis is essentially when inorganic dust is found on the lung tissue; in this case, caused by tin oxide minerals. [2]
Tin(II) chloride, also known as stannous chloride, is a white crystalline solid with the formula Sn Cl 2. It forms a stable dihydrate, but aqueous solutions tend to undergo hydrolysis, particularly if hot. SnCl 2 is widely used as a reducing agent (in acid solution), and in electrolytic baths for tin-plating.
This is a partial list of herbs and herbal treatments with known or suspected adverse effects, either alone or in interaction with other herbs or drugs.Non-inclusion of an herb in this list does not imply that it is free of adverse effects.
Tin has no known natural biological role in living organisms. It is not easily absorbed by animals including humans. The low toxicity is relevant to the widespread use of tin in dinnerware and canned food. [1] Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea have been reported after ingesting canned food containing 200 mg/kg of tin.

Other potential symptoms include: nausea and vomiting, a decreased level of consciousness, and breathing difficulties. [2] Symptoms usually begin within 6 hours of taking the medication by mouth. [2] With extended release formulations symptoms may not occur for up to a day. [2] Seizures are rare in adults but in children occur more often. [2]
Contact with skin is dangerous and adequate ventilation should be provided when melting this metal. [2] Many thallium compounds are highly soluble in water and are readily absorbed through the skin. [3] Exposure to them should not exceed 0.1 mg per m 2 of skin in an 8 hour time-weighted average (40-hour working week).
Tin(II) chloride (also known as stannous chloride) is the most important commercial tin halide. Illustrating the routes to such compounds, chlorine reacts with tin metal to give SnCl 4 whereas the reaction of hydrochloric acid and tin produces SnCl 2 and hydrogen gas.
