Organophosphorus nerve agents irreversibly inhibit acetylcholinesterase, causing a toxic buildup of acetylcholine at muscarinic and nicotinic receptors. Current medical countermeasures to nerve agent intoxication increase survival if administered within a short period of time following exposure but may not fully prevent neurological damage. Therefore, there is a need to discover drug treatments that are effective when administered after the onset of seizures and secondary responses that lead to brain injury. To determine potential therapeutic targets for such treatments, we analyzed gene expression changes in the rat piriform cortex following sarin (O-isopropyl methylphosphonofluoridate)-induced seizure. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were challenged with 1 × LD50 sarin and subsequently treated with atropine sulfate, 2-pyridine aldoxime methylchloride (2-PAM), and the anticonvulsant diazepam. Control animals received an equivalent volume of vehicle and drug treatments. The piriform cortex, a brain region
Dusty agents/ Powder: Theres no way that I know of to dispense Sarin as a solid or powder, although I cant completely rule out the possibility that someone has developed a dusty agent form of Sarin. There is some literature out there on the possibility of dusty chemical warfare agents. As far as I know, this was only ever a possibility with really low vapour pressure agents, not fast evaporating agents like Sarin. The only benefit I can think of for making a dusty sarin (in reality, not Sarin as a powder, but small particles impregnated with sarin) would be to slow down the evaporation time of the Sarin… i.e. increase its persistency. But doing so would decrease the rate at which the agent is dispensed in vapour form, thus reducing its immediate lethality somewhat. And immediate lethality is the point and purpose of Sarin. It would seem to have little utility and an awfully difficult way of engineering some persistency into Sarin. It would be far easier to use a more persistent nerve ...
The most explicit finding to-date (pre-UN report) comes from the UKs Defence Science Technology Laboratory. Soil and cloth samples tested positive for the nerve gas sarin. The sarin in the cloth was in liquid form that soaked into the cloth. As discussed below, this finding reinforces the conclusion that kitchen sarin was used. Hence, so much will depend on the UNs findings when their tests are completed.The claim that the agent used was a military sarin is problematic because military sarin accumulates (like a gaseous crystal) around the victims hair and loose threads in clothes. Since these molecules are detached and released anew by any movement, they would have thus killed or injured the first responders who touched the victims bodies without protective clothes, gloves and masks. However, opposition videos show the first responders moving corpses around without any ill effects. This strongly indicates that the agent in question was the slow acting kitchen sarin. Indeed, other ...

Sarin (o-isopropyl methylphosphonofluoridate), one of the several highly toxic chemical warfare agents, can be readily neutralized in sodium hydroxide solution forming large quantities of brine solution containing IMPA (o-isopropyl methylphosphonic acid) and sodium fluoride that must be further processed and disposed. Two mixed cultures were successfully acclimated to use IMPA as a phosphorus source. The medium formula was chosen to provide the reactors with adequate alternative carbon sources so that the only limiting factor of the bacterial growth is phosphorus. Kinetic studies of the two cultures both in suspended and encapsulated forms were done with the initial IMPA concentrations ranged from 15 mg/L to 1,280 mg/L. Kinetic parameters were estimated based on IMPA and biomass concentrations measured over time using Monod equation and the least square method. For both cultures IMPA was not inhibitive under the tested conditions. For the free cells, n{sub max} was 131.3 mg/l/day for the APG ...

Sarin is a nerve gas, a deadly poison. It was designed as a chemical weapon for use in war by Nazi Germany. It has been classified as a weapon of mass destruction[1] in UN Resolution 687. Production and stockpiling of sarin was outlawed by the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1993, and it is classified as a Schedule 1 substance. Sarin can be lethal even at very low concentrations. Death comes in 1 to 10 minutes after breathing it in. It paralyses lung muscles. Antidotes, such as atropine, can save a person if given immediately.[2] People who get a non-lethal dose, but do not get immediate treatment, may suffer permanent neurological damage. ...
Sarin napada nervni sistem živih bića. Kada se simuliše funkcionalni motorni neuron ili parasimpatetički neuron on otpušta neuroprenosnik acetilholin koji prenosi impuls do mozga. Nakon toga enzim acetilholinesteraza razlaže acetilholin da bi se mišić opustio. Sarin remeti rad nervnog sistema tako što sa holinesterazom gradi kovalentnu vezu na mjestima u kojim bi normalno acetilholin podlegao hidrolizi.[9][10][11] Zbog ovoga se nervni impulsi kontinuirano prenose. Početni simptomi nakon izlaganja sarinu su nos koji curi, stiskanje u grudima. Ubrzo nakon toga osoba ima poteškoće sa disanjem, gubi kontrolu nad telesnim funkcijama, pa povraća i mokri. Udisanje sarina ili dodir sa njim preko kože je jednako opasan. Čak i koncentracija pare je dovoljna da brzo prodire u kožu. Ljudi koji se izlože sarinu, a ne dobiju odgovarajući tretman mogu imati posljedice za čitav život. Sarin može biti smrtonosan čak i u malim količinama. Smrt može uslijediti i minut nakon direktnog ...

Tako kot druga živčna zdravila sarin napade živčni sistem.[6] [7]. Natančneje je sarin močan zaviralec encima holinesteraze. Sarin deluje na holinesteraze s tvorjenjem kovalentne vezi z določenimi serinskimi ostanki na aktivno mesto. Fluorid je nato zapuščena skupina in posledično rezultat je phosphoester, ki je robusten vendar biološko neaktiven. Z encim zaviral, acetilholin kopiči v sinapse in še naprej tako deluje, da so vsi živčni impulzi v bistvu ves čas v prenašanju. Običajno acetylcholinesteras pokvari acetilholin kot sinaptično razcepljen, da se omogoči efektor na mišicah ali organu, da se sprosti. ...
The use of poisons in war, specifically poison gas, started in the First World War. But one of the most potent poison gases, nerve gases ever discovered is the compound called sarin. This was developed by the Germans in the 1930s, and taken over by the German military. In the World War II, the Germans stockpiled a lot of sarin, but it was never used. And most of it was discovered by the Russians, as they push through into Germany. All sorts of countries have made and have stockpiled sarin. And most, quite recently, weve seen that the United States going to the verge of military action against Syria, because of the use of sarin in the Syrian Civil War. One terrible use of sarin was back in 1988, when the Saddam Husseins military in Iraq used it against villages up in the Kurdistan, in the north of the country. Sarin is a very, very powerful nerve agent. It gets into the body, it stops the nervous system working, and even with very low doses causes death. Its not just governments that have made ...

The nerve agent sarin causes a deadly overstimulation of the nervous system that can be stopped if treated with an antidote within minutes of poisoning. A groundbreaking study was recently published in PNAS, which in detail describes how such a drug works. Researchers at the Swedish Defence Research Agency, Umeå University and in Germany are behind the study.. Sarin is a colourless, odourless liquid fatal even at very low concentrations. Serious sarin poisoning causes visual disturbance, vomiting, breathing difficulties and, finally, death.. Nerve agents are dreadful weapons, and our hope is for these results to lead to improved drugs against them, says Anders Allgardsson, biochemist at the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI).. Nerve agents destroy the function of a very important protein in the nervous system called acetylcholinesterase. As long as the nerve agent is bound to the protein, the breakdown of an important signal substance is prevented. The antidote HI-6 removes the nerve agent ...
On Sunday (Sept 1, 2013), the Obama administration indicated evidence that the Syrian regime has relied on chemical warfare to quell the current insurrection. In what could be the gravest chemical weapons attack in 25 years, the Assad administration reportedly used the nerve toxin sarin to wipe out 1,400 insurgents and civilians in their sleep. Anger and frustration aside, the purported attacks have inspired confusion, with countless people asking themselves how a chemical agent can do such horrifying damage.. According to Agence France-Presse, sarin is a nerve agent developed by Nazi scientists in 1938. Originally derived from a pesticide, the odorless, paralyzing toxin has been used extensively by terror organization as well as genocidal regimes to kill thousands. Inhalation of about 200 milligrams results in death within minutes, leaving no time for symptoms to develop.. I - Word ...

Organophosphorus nerve agents interfere with cholinergic signaling by covalently binding to the active site of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE). This inhibition causes an accumulation of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, potentially leading to overstimulation of the nervous system and death. Current treatments include the use of antidotes that promote the release of functional AChE by an unknown reactivation mechanism. We have used diffusion trap cryocrystallography and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to determine and analyze prereaction conformers of the nerve agent antidote HI-6 in complex with Mus musculus AChE covalently inhibited by the nerve agent sarin. These analyses reveal previously unknown conformations of the system and suggest that the cleavage of the covalent enzyme-sarin bond is preceded by a conformational change in the sarin adduct itself. Together with data from the reactivation kinetics, this alternate conformation suggests a key interaction between Glu202 ...
Sarin, the deadly nerve agent that killed 12 people and injured 5500 others when the Aum Supreme Truth cult released it on the Tokyo subway in March 1995, was first produced by Nazi scientists in the 1930s.
VX nerve gas. Molecular model of the nerve gas VX, or ethyl S-[2-diisopropylaminoethyl]- methylphosphonothioate. It has the formula (C11.H26.N.O2.P.S). The atoms are shown as sticks and are colour-coded: carbon (magenta), hydrogen (white), oxygen (red), nitrogen (blue), phosphorus (green) and sulphur (yellow). VX is a synthetic compound used in chemical weapons. It belongs to a class of drugs called cholinesterase inhibitors, which block the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. They cause muscle spasms and death through respiratory failure. VX can be absorbed through the skin, and may remain active for weeks after deployment. - Stock Image A700/0123

Remarks: Both parallel (e.g. Stinnesbeck 1986) and convergent (e.g. Iones 1963) flanks have been described previously for this species. Thirteen of our tests are crushed, but specimens that are well preserved show little variation in test shape, and all of them have parallel flanks. Hypophylloceras (Neophylloceras) hetonaiense is similar to H. (N) ramosum but differs by having less flexuous lirae. It differs from H. (N) cottreaui (discussed below) owing to its much narrower umbilicus. Occurrence: Hypophylloceras (Neophylloceras) hetonaiense (Matsumoto) is known from the Campanian-Maastrichtian of Japan (Matsumoto 1942), California (Matsumoto 1959b), Antarctica (Spath 1953) and Alaska (Jones 1963), and the Upper Maastrichtian of Chile (Stinnesbeck 1986).

Two men were accidentally exposed to vapors of sarin, a cholinesterase inhibitor and extremely toxic nerve gas. Diagnosis was confirmed by depressed cholinesterase activity, and fixed extremely miotic pupils. No other signs or symptoms developed and neither man required treatment. Recovery to normal cholinesterase activity was gradual over a 90-day period. Pupillary reflexes were not detectable until 11 days after exposure; the miotic pupils dilated slowly over a 30-45 day-period. Eye pain and blurred vision did not occur; visual acuity and amplitude of accommodation were improved for several weeks. Other functions not affected significantly were intraocular pressure, visual fields, color vision, heterophorias, and vergences. ...

US citizens, and the thousands of soldiers who took dangerous doses of radiation as part of other studies, havent been the only victims of science run amuck. Between 1964 and 1968, for example, at least a dozen covert tests of nerve and chemical agents were carried out on servicemen in the Pacific Ocean, then concealed and denied for more than 20 years. Crews were used to gauge how quickly various poisons could be detected, how rapidly they would disperse, and the effectiveness of protective gear and decontamination procedures.. Three tests used sarin, a deadly nerve gas subsequently employed by a cult to kill a dozen people in a Tokyo subway in 1995, or VX, the nerve gas that the US later accused Iraq of developing. One test used staphylococcal enterotoxin B, known as SEB, a crippling germ toxin; another used a simulant believed to be harmless but subsequently found to be dangerous. We do not see things like informed consent or individual protection, noted Michael Kilpatrick, a Defense ...

Organophosphorus nerve agents (OPNA), such as sarin (GB), soman (GD), tabun (GA) and O-ethyl-S-2-diisopropylaminoethyl methylphosphonothiolate (VX), are the most toxic organic chemicals known as their highly lethal ability [1]. OPNA are easily synthesized [2,3] that have been developed and manufactured since World War II. Even after the ratification by Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) in Hague in 1997 [4], OPNA still cause critical concern and have already be implemented for several terrorist activities. Large stockpiles of nerve agents might still exist in many countries for possible use or as deterrence. In the Iran-Iraq conflict during the 1980s, nerve agents were thought to be used and the hydrolysis product of GB was found in bomb craters [5]. In an act of terrorism, GB gas was deliberately released in the subways of Tokyo and Masumoto by members of the Japanese cult Aum Shinrikyo in 1995.
