TL;DR: Baetjer, Damron and Budacz as mentioned in this paper investigated the interactions of both tri-and hexavalent chromium with lung tissue, and found that only trivalent was bound to the tissue.

TL;DR: Two factors must be taken into account in order to interpret the results of patch test reactions of chromate-sensitive subjects to trivaient chromium compounds: the penetrability of the compound through the epidermal barrier and the concentrations of the test solutions.

TL;DR: The nickel uptake of these modified epidermis powders as compared to the untreated material indicates that carboxyl groups are involved in the binding of nickel to a greater extent than are amino groups.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanism for the extraction of chromium(VI) from aqueous hydrochloric acid solutions by methyl isobutyl ketone is proposed, which involves the formation of a receptor in the organic phase, the exchange of the chloride ion of the receptor for the anionic chromium (VI) species of the aQous phase, and the solvation of the extracted chromium species.

TL;DR: The mechanism for the inactivation of hexavalent chromium by ascorbic acid involves reduction to trivalent Chromium and subsequent complex formation of the trivalents species.
