Background


View Taiwan in a larger mapLegend: = Government Agency, = NGO, = University, = Professional Society, = Poison Control Center, = Toxic Site.

Dr. Tsungming Tu, the first medical doctor and pharmacologist in Taiwan, began his studies on opiates, morphine, Chinese herbs, and snake venoms after he was graduated from Kyoto Imperial University in 1922. His team has cultivated a lot of outstanding pharmacologists and toxicologists in the Graduate Institute of Pharmacology at the National Taiwan University College of Medicine (NTUCM). Among them, Drs. Chen-Yuan Lee, Chuan-Chiung Chang, Che-Ming Teng and his colleagues have conducted series of studies on snake venoms and natural products, including the discovery of bungarotoxins, which won Dr. Lee the Redi Award in 1976. There were another team of researchers who conducted studies on toxicology at the Graduate Institute of Biochemistry of the NTUCM after World War II. Among them, Drs. Ta-Cheng Tung and Jung-Yaw Lin, Guo-Huang Lin and Jen-Kun Lin were famous for studies of various phytotoxins and fungotoxins, including mimosine, abrin and ricin, territrem and azo dyes. Most of these early studies focused more on laboratory works and help the establishment of two graduate institutes of toxicology in Taiwan: One in the National Taiwan University College of Medicine (1990), while another in Chung-Shan Medical University (1996). Later on, the Division of Environmental Health and Occupational Medicine was set up in the National Health Research Institutes in 1999, which also contribute to the education and training of young toxicologists. So far, there are about more than 300 professionals who have joined the Taiwan Society of Toxicology and conducted laboratory researches.

In 1982, Dr. Jung-Der Wang began to establish an occupational and environmental clinic at the National Taiwan University Hospital, which began the recognition and documentation of diseases resulted from occupational and environmental hazards in factories. Later on, Dr. Jou-Fang Deng established the Taiwan National Poison Control Center (PCC-Taiwan) in 1985 under the auspices of Department of Health, Taiwan and the Taipei Veterans General Hospital, which provides 24-hour free consultation assistance for identification, diagnosis and treatment of poisonings, interpretation of laboratory tests for 23 million inhabitants. His team has coordinated to establish a National Antidote Stocking System in 2001, which managed the distribution and stocking of seven antidotes of first priority: Physostigmine, Cyanide antidote (Hydroxocobalamin), BAL (DMSA, DMPS), Ca-EDTA, Methylene blue, Botulism antitoxin and the Antivenom against Viper russeli formosensis. Because of the cooperation among doctors from these two and other medical centers, they established the Board of Occupational Medicine approved and accredited by the Department of Health of Taiwan in 2002 and so far there have been about more than 234 board certified occupational and environmental physicians responsible for seeing patients suffering from poisoning of occupational and environmental hazards and about 934 board certified emergency physicians seeing patients with acute poisoning.
