Hello

Thank You for writing back. As i mentioned earlier, there is a long list of chemicals mentioned by CDC. The list i mentioned has been selective. These are the chemicals which one or another person encounters daily in life. If still you want to chose from the above mentioned list then i would go for:

> ammonia- fertilizer
> asbestos- ship yard bulidings
> carbon monoxide - automobilie combustion
> Carbon disulfide - industries
> Formaldehyde- antisetic solutions
> Lead & Nickle- batteries & paints
> mercury- thermomemeter
> Methylene chloride - paint remover
