Sensors to Detect Sarin Simulant [PDF]

open access: possibleCritical Reviews in Analytical Chemistry, 2020
This work presents a literature review concerning the construction, properties and application of different sensors used to detect dimethyl methylphonate (DMMP), which is the simulant of sarin. Sensors sensitive to mass are described, together with such sensors as: SAW, QCM, MEMS, also chemical capacitors, semiconductors, and field effect transistors.

Urinary metabolites of sarin in a patient of the Matsumoto sarin incident

Archives of Toxicology, 1998
Sarin metabolites were measured in urine from a patient with sarin poisoning. Two metabolites, methylphosphonic acid (MPA) and isopropylmethylphosphonic acid (iPMPA), were detected by gas chromatography after conversion to volatile derivatives with N-methyl-N-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-trifluoroacetamide in the urine from the victim collected on the ...

Rotational Spectrum of Sarin

Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy, 2001
As part of an effort to examine the possibility of using molecular-beam Fourier-transform microwave spectroscopy to unambiguously detect and monitor chemical warfare agents, we report the first observation and assignment of the rotational spectrum of the nerve agent Sarin (GB) (Methylphosphonofluoridic acid 1-methyl-ethyl ester, CAS #107-44-8) at ...

Biodegradation of neutralized Sarin

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1999
This research investigated the biotransformation of IMPA, the neutralization product of the nerve agent Sarin, by a microbial consortia. As mandated by the Chemical Weapons Convention signed by 132 countries in 1993, all chemical warfare agents are to be destroyed within ten years of ratification.

KINETICS OF THE ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS OF SARIN

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1956
The enzymatic hydrolysis of sarin is apparently a single first-order reaction. There is no evidence of different reaction rates for the two possible optical isomers of sarin. During both the enzymatic and the non-enzymatic hydrolyses, sarin appears to be detoxified somewhat more rapidly than the manometric results would indicate.

Sarin poisoning in Matsumoto, Japan

The Lancet, 1995
A presumed terrorist attack with sarin occurred in a residential area of the city of Matsumoto, Japan, on June 27, 1994. About 600 residents and rescue staff were poisoned; 58 were admitted to hospitals, and 7 died. We examined clinical and laboratory findings of 264 people who sought treatment and the results of health examinations on 155 residents ...

Sarin and Soman: Structure and Properties [PDF]

open access: possibleStructural Chemistry, 2004
The most stable conformers of sarin (isopropyl methylphosphonoflouridate) and soman (pinacolyl methylphosphonofluoridate) are determined in high-level-correlated calculations with extended Gaussian basis sets. The two molecules are found to have three low-energy conformers each.

Sarin Poisoning on Tokyo Subway

Southern Medical Journal, 1997
On the day of the disaster, 641 victims were seen at St. Luke's International Hospital. Among those, five victims arrived with cardiopulmonary or respiratory arrest with marked miosis and extremely low serum cholinesterase values; two died and three recovered completely. In addition to these five critical patients, 106 patients, including four pregnant

Synthesis of [11C]‐sarin

Journal of Labelled Compounds and Radiopharmaceuticals, 1990
Abstract[11C]‐acetone, prepared from 11CO2 and methyllithium, was reduced to [11C]‐isopropanol. The latter reacted with methylphosphonic acid difluoride in the presence of diisopropylamine, to yield [11C]‐sarin.3.4 GBq (100 mCi) of [11C]‐sarin may be obtained from about 55.5 GBq (1.5 Ci) of 11CO2 in 40 minutes. The product purified by HPLC, is obtained
