Novichoks: The Dangerous Fourth Generation of Chemical Weapons [PDF]
“Novichoks” is the name given to the controversial chemical weapons supposedly developed in the former Soviet Union between the 1970s and the 1990s. Designed to be undetectable and untreatable, these chemicals became the most toxic of the nerve agents, being very attractive for both terrorist and chemical warfare purposes.

Characterization of the Interaction of Nerve Agent Mimics with Selected Synthetic Receptors
Qualitative NMR spectroscopic and quantitative calorimetric binding studies were performed to characterize the interaction of nontoxic mimics of the V-type nerve agent VX (O-ethyl S-[2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl] methylphosphonothioate) and the Novichok ...

This is the first report addressing analysis of biomarker adducts obtained from human hair exposed to the nerve agents sarin and VX in vitro. Phosphonylated single amino acids were obtained after pronase‐catalyzed proteolysis of hair proteins. Adducted Lys and especially Tyr residues were the most prominent adducts detected by μLC‐ESI MS/HR MS.

Effective degradation of Novichok nerve agents by the zirconium metal−organic framework MOF-808
Novichoks are a novel class of nerve agents (also referred to as the A-series) that were employed in several poisonings over the last few years. This calls for the development of novel countermeasures that can be applied in protective concepts (e.g ...
