• Hydrocarbons comprise a broad group of
organic compounds that contain only
hydrogen and carbon.
The most
volatile hydrocaihons are low-molecularweight
(C1 to C5) gases and are asphyxiants.
Aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene,
toluene. and xylene, are also volatile and well
absorbed from the GI tract.
• Hydrocarbons with viscosity values below 45 SSU units
have high aspiration risk,whereas those with a viscosity
value greater than 100 SSU have a low aspiration potential
