Therapeutic Efficacy of Different Antidotal Mixtures Against Poisoning with GF-Agent in Mice

Acta Medica, 2004
The toxicity of cyclohexyl methylphosphonofluoridate (GF-agent; cyclosarin) and therapeutic efficacy of four oximes (trimedoxime, methoxime, obidoxime and HI-6) in combination with atropine or benactyzine (BNZ) was studied in mice.

Imidazole aldoximes effective in assisting butyrylcholinesterase catalysis of organophosphate detoxification. [PDF]

, 2014
Intoxication by organophosphate (OP) nerve agents and pesticides should be addressed by efficient, quickly deployable countermeasures such as antidotes reactivating acetylcholinesterase or scavenging the parent OP.

Toxicological analyses of the bone matrix: Successes and challenges

Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 1001-1021, August 2025.
Abstract This study aimed to conduct an in‐depth and systematic literature review dealing with toxicological analyses on human bone tissue and focusing on the forensic toxicological and archaeotoxicological field. Several studies have focused their research on medical drugs, drugs of abuse, and trace elements on both human cadavers and skeletal remains,

A Thermostable Bacterial Metallohydrolase that Degrades Organophosphate Plasticizers

ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 11, June 3, 2025.
This bacterial enzyme, cyclase‐phosphotriesterase (C‐PTE) from Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS‐3, shows significant potential for breaking down organophosphate pollutants. Beyond its capability to hydrolyze specific plasticizers such as triphenyl phosphate and tris(2‐chloropropyl) phosphate, C‐PTE's crystal structure reveals a binuclear zinc active site, and it ...

Sulfonatocalix[4]arene‐Based Scavengers for V‐Type Nerve Agents with Enhanced Detoxification Activity

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 31, Issue 9, February 12, 2025.
Two is better than one. The introduction of a second hydroxamic acid substituents along the cavity of a sulfonatocalix[4]arene improves the activity with which this compound detoxifies highly toxic nerve agents of the V‐type to such an extent that its use as an antidote is now conceivable.

Detoxification of V‐Nerve Agents Assisted by a Microperoxidase: New Pathway Revealed by the Use of a Relevant VX Simulant

ChemBioChem, Volume 25, Issue 15, August 1, 2024.
The biocatalyzed oxidative detoxification of the V‐series simulant PhX with the microperoxidase AcMP11 affords the corresponding phosphonothioate as the prominent product instead of the classical P−S and P−O bond cleavage. These results highlight the efficacy of AcMP11 to efficiently detoxify V‐series organophosphorus nerve agents and the necessity to ...

Detoxification of Chemical Warfare Agents by a Zr‐Based MOF with High Recycling Ability at Physiological pH

ChemNanoMat, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2024.
Detoxification of organophosphate (OP) chemical warfare agents is a major concern due to their high toxicity. Previous researches demonstrate Zr‐MOF catalysts efficiently hydrolyzing OPs in highly alkaline pH (~9‐10). However, catalysts for detoxification at physiological pH and with high recycling ability remain limited.
