Novel Neuroprotectants for Sarin plus CBDP Induced Convulsions [PDF]
, 2009 Sarin, also known as Sarin (German agent B) is classified as a weapon of mass destruction. Sarin (O-isopropyl methyl phosphonofluoridate) is a highly toxic nerve agent originally produced for chemical warfare and has been used in terrorist activities ...

Surface Tension of Organophosphorus Compounds: Sarin and its Surrogates
, 2023 While the production and stockpiling of organophosphorus chemical warfare agents (CWAs), such as sarin, was banned three decades ago, CWAs have remained a threat.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Additive manufacturing introduces pronounced microstructural and crystallographic anisotropy in Ni‐based superalloys, resulting in orientation‐dependent creep deformation and damage. This review identifies the key microstructural origins of creep anisotropy, examines their influence on dominant deformation mechanisms, and highlights processing ...

Counteracting poisoning with chemical warfare nerve agents
Arhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2020 Phosphylation of the pivotal enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by nerve agents (NAs) leads to irreversible inhibition of the enzyme and accumulation of neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which induces cholinergic crisis, that is, overstimulation of ...

An Adaptive Inhibitory WSe2 Transistor for Retinomorphic In‐Sensor Image Processing
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Conventional retinomorphic devices typically require deliberate gate‐bias tuning for each illumination condition. In this paper, we demonstrate an adaptive inhibitory WSe2 transistor that uses photo‐induced regime shift between the subthreshold and accumulation modes to achieve decision‐free, intensity‐adaptive image processing within a single pixel ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Poly(acrylic acid) acts as a reaction‐time pH buffer during hydrothermal Sb2(S,Se)3 growth through its COOH/COO‐ equilibrium. When combined with ethanol‐regulated growth, this buffering strategy reduces Sb‐O related surface disorder, improves local electronic uniformity and carrier collection, and increases the champion solar‐cell efficiency to 10.25%,
