This study reports on the pharmacokinetics of the elimination of the metabolites of three toxic organophosphorus compounds (soman, sarin and GF). Urine, blood and lung tissue were collected from rats dosed subcutaneously at 75 pg kg-'. Urinary excretion of the metabolite was the major elimination ro
The in vitro adsorption of the alkaloid emetine, a primary constituent of ipecac, on activated charcoal was studied. The results support the supposition that syrup of ipecac should not be given to counteract poisonings if activated charcoal is also to be administered.
In our study, we have tested six acetylcholinesterase (AChE) reactivators (pralidoxime, obidoxime, HI-6, trimedoxime, BI-6 and Hlö-7) for reactivation of sarin-and cyclosarin-inhibited AChE using an in vitro reactivation test. We have used rat brain homogenate as the suitable source of enzyme. All o
