Nerve Agent Hydrolysis Activity Designed into a Human Drug Metabolism Enzyme [PDF]
Organophosphorus (OP) nerve agents are potent suicide inhibitors of the essential neurotransmitter-regulating enzyme acetylcholinesterase. Due to their acute toxicity, there is significant interest in developing effective countermeasures to OP ...

ABSTRACT OP compounds, commonly used as pesticides, are readily available over the counter and frequently implicated in intentional poisoning. We report a case of a 43‐year‐old male with OP poisoning initially misdiagnosed as alcohol intoxication. He was intubated in the emergency department on arrival due to a low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) of 6/15 and ...

Biomass‐Derived Carbon Photocatalysts for Organic Pollutant Degradation: Strategies and Perspectives
Recent advances in biomass‐derived carbon photocatalysts are highlighted, focusing on synthesis, surface engineering, and mechanisms such as ROS generation and band‐gap tuning. Heteroatom doping, heterojunctions, and hybrid architectures boost visible‐light activity, while scalability and stability challenges are addressed for practical environmental ...
