Organophosphate poisoning

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1993
The present review discusses the structure of the anticholinesterase organophosphates (OPs), which are used predominantly as insecticides. OP poisoning can occur in a variety of situations and can be accidental or suicidal. It is common in developing countries.

Porous Graphene Oxide-Metal Ion Composite for Selective Sensing of Organophosphate Gases.

ACS Sensors, 2020
Organophosphates are used as agricultural pesticides, and also encountered as toxic nerve agents in chemical warfare. Accordingly, development of sensors for detection and monitoring organophosphate vapors is highly sought.

A Review of Organophosphate Poisoning

Medical Toxicology, 1988
Many organophosphate compounds are pesticides widely used for the control of insect vectors. They are not ideal agents because they lack target vector selectivity, and have caused severe toxicity and even death in humans and domestic animals. Their toxicity has been recognised since the 1930s, when they were also developed for use as chemical warfare ...

Opsoclonus in Organophosphate Poisoning

Archives of Neurology, 1989
Transient opsoclonus was observed in a patient who attempted suicide with the organophosphate insecticide Malathion (diethyl[dimethoxyphosphinothioyl]thiobutanedioate). Several toxins can cause opsoclonus, and these must be considered in its differential diagnosis.

Organophosphate Esters in Air, Snow, and Seawater in the North Atlantic and the Arctic.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2017
The concentrations of eight organophosphate esters (OPEs) have been investigated in air, snow and seawater samples collected during the cruise of ARK-XXVIII/2 from sixth June to third July 2014 across the North Atlantic and the Arctic. The sum of gaseous
