Elution of cadmium from dentures.
Heat-cured, pink-pigmented (light veined) Stellon maxillary acrylic denture blanks were shaken in 150 ml synthetic saliva varied from 0.15 to 1.05 mug independently of elution time. With o.1N CH3COOH the amount of cadmium, varying from 1,20 to 2.55 mug, increased slowly with elution time. Another batch of Stellon gave higher values in 0.1N CH3COOH.
