Antimony

Antimony is listed by Ufelle & Barchowsky 2021 among minor toxic metals for which toxicity has been described. The Essentials chapter does not provide a detailed antimony subsection, so this node is source-map context only.

Status

This page is a source-map stub created during the re-ingest of Ufelle & Barchowsky 2021. Substantive antimony-specific expansion awaits a dedicated ingest.
