Polyclonal Antibody to Soman-Tyrosine [PDF]
Soman forms a stable, covalent bond with tyrosine 411 of human albumin, with tyrosines 257 and 593 in human transferrin, and with tyrosine in many other proteins. The pinacolyl group of soman is retained, suggesting that pinacolyl methylphosphonate bound to tyrosine could generate specific antibodies.

Nerve agents (NAs) induce a severe cholinergic crisis that can lead to status epilepticus (SE). Current guidelines for treatment of NA-induced SE only include prehospital benzodiazepines, which may not fully resolve this life-threatening condition.

1. The changes of cholinesterase activity in rabbit blood, peripheral tissues and the central nervous system following transfusion of erythrocytes with soman inhibited acetylcholinesterase were demonstrated. 2. After incubation with soman for 0.5 or 24 h,

Acute exposure to nerve agents induces status epilepticus (SE), which can cause death or long-term brain damage. Diazepam is approved by the FDA for the treatment of nerve agent-induced SE, and midazolam (MDZ) is currently under consideration to replace ...

Aim: The ability of four newly prepared reversible inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (6-chlorotacrine, 7-phenoxytacrine, compounds 1 and 2) and currently used carbamate pyridostigmine to increase the resistance of mice against soman and the efficacy of ...

Neuroprotective effects of a catalytic antioxidant in a rat nerve agent model
Persistent inhibition of acetylcholinesterase resulting from exposure to nerve agents such as soman, is associated with prolonged seizure activity known as status epilepticus (SE). Without medical countermeasures, exposure to soman and resultant SE leads

The alcoholysis of 1,2,2-trimethylpropyl-methylfluorophosphonate [PDF]
The alcoholysis of 1,2,2-trimethylpropyl-methylfluorophosphonate (soman) was examined with a series of alkoxides and in corresponding alcohols: methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 2-methoxyethanol and 2-ethoxyethanol.

Modeling a real-world scenario of organophosphate nerve agent (OPNA) exposure is challenging. Military personnel are premedicated with pyridostigmine, which led to the development of OPNA models with pyridostigmine/oxime pretreatment to investigate novel

Neuroprotective Effects of Antidotes in Soman-Poisoned Rats
1. The neuroprotective effects of antidotes (atropine, obidoxime/atropine mixture, HI-6/atropine mixture) on rats poisoned with soman at a sublethal dose (48 μg/kg i.m.; 60% of LD50 value) were studied.
