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

Comparison of the structure and activity of glycosylated and asglycosylated human carboxylesterase 1 [PDF]
Human Carboxylesterase 1 (hCES1) is the key liver microsomal enzyme responsible for detoxification and metabolism of a variety of clinical drugs. To analyse the role of the single N-linked glycan on the structure and activity of the enzyme, authentically

Toxicological analyses of the bone matrix: Successes and challenges
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,

In vitro detoxification of cyclosarin in human blood pre-incubated ex vivo with recombinant serum paraoxonases [PDF]
An ex vivo protocol was developed to assay the antidotal capacity of rePON1 variants to protect endogenous acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase in human whole blood against OP nerve agents. This protocol permitted us to address the relationship between blood rePON1 concentrations, their kinetic parameters, and the level of protection ...

A Thermostable Bacterial Metallohydrolase that Degrades Organophosphate Plasticizers
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 ...

Connectivity differences between Gulf War Illness (GWI) phenotypes during a test of attention [PDF]
One quarter of veterans returning from the 1990–1991 Persian Gulf War have developed Gulf War Illness (GWI) with chronic pain, fatigue, cognitive and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Exertion leads to characteristic, delayed onset exacerbations that are not

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.

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 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.
