The UK government has carried out a research programme studying military capability under conditions of chemical warfare at a facility at Porton Down, Wiltshire, since World War I. In 2001 the Ministry of Defence commissioned a cohort study to investigate the long-term health effects on military veterans of their participation in this programme. We assessed the availability and quality of expos...
CONTEXT The main objectives of triage are securing patient safety during the process of emergency diagnosis and treatment, and reduction of waiting time for medical services and transport. To date, there is no triage system for nerve agent victims. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION This systematic review proposes a new triage system for patients exposed to nerve agents. Information regarding clinical sign...
Threats from chemical warfare agents, commonly known as nerve gases, constitute a serious security issue of increasing global concern because of surging terrorist activity worldwide. However, nerve gases are difficult to detect using current analytical tools and outside dedicated laboratories. Here we demonstrate that surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) can be used for sensitive detection ...
use by the OPCW inspectorate. Use of GC with one or more spectrometric technique such as mass spectrometry is required to conRrm the presence of chemical warfare agents. For this reason many analyses are carried out by GC-MS under electron impact or chemical ionization conditions. For analyses involving low levels of chemical warfare agents in the presence of high levels of interfering chemical...
Bacterial enzymes have been isolated that catalyze the hydrolysis of organophosphate nerve agents with high-rate enhancements and broad substrate specificity. Mutant forms of these enzymes have been constructed through rational redesign of the active-site binding pockets and random mutagenesis to create protein variants that are optimized for the detoxification of agricultural insecticides and ...
background: sulfur mustard (sm) as a chemical warfare agent, increases permeability of bronchial vessels and damages airway epithelium. sm exposure causes debilitating respiratory complications. this study was designed to evaluate clinical respiratory manifestations, and to compare chest x ray (cxr) and high resolution computed tomography (hrct) scan of chest in sm exposed patients with respira...
There is a spectrum of several threat agents, ranging from nerve agents and mustard agents to natural substances, such as biotoxins and new, synthetic, bioactive molecules produced by the chemical industry, to the classical biological warfare agents. The new, emerging threat agents are biotoxins produced by animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria. Many types of organisms produce substances that ar...
Nerve agents belong to highly toxic organophosphorus compounds misused as chemical warfare agents for military as well as terroristic purposes. Basic mechanism of action of nerve agents is based on acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) inhibition and subsequent accumulation of neuromediator acetylcholine at the cholinergic synapses, either peripheral or central leading to cholinergic hypersti...
