Initial comments
[edit]This looks to be a strong candidate for WP:GAN, nevertheless I will carry out a full review before making my decision. Pyrotec (talk) 10:11, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
At this point I'm just going to concentrate on a few minor points.
- Signs and symptoms -
- Perhaps we are splitting hairs here, but the statement "In the United States, the OSHA limits long-term workplace exposure levels to less than 50 ppm" is not true. The OSHA 8 hour time weighted average limit is 50 ppm, and that is clearly stated in ref 8; peak values can be higher, 100 and 200 ppm, depending on the application, are given in ref 8. In Europe, we have a 8-hour TWA limit of 30 ppm (it was 50 ppm). (Note: I will come back to this I want to check some data first).
- I did a copyedit on the article. Pyrotec (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

- I'm not very keen on the statement: "Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs after enough inhalation of carbon monoxide (CO)". Its rather vague, but at present I have not come up with a better solution. Pyrotec (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
- That a good point, that sentence is not the best, I also have not come up with a better solution, will think about it. Mr Bungle | talk 08:39, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
