Organophosphate (OP) pesticides and nerve agents are responsible for suicidal and
accidental poisonings. The acute toxicity of nerve agents leads to progressive inhibition of …

There is an immediate need to develop new strategies for detoxification and
decontamination of organophosphorus-containing nerve agents and pesticides. Oximes …

The organophosphorus compound (OP) induced inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE)
and their reactivation has been monitored using gold nanoprobe. The method is based on …

Acetylcholinesterase reactivators (oximes) are compounds used for antidotal treatment in
case of organophosphorus poisoning. The dissociation constants (pK a1) of ten standard or …

Poisoning with organophosphorus compounds (OPCs) is a major problem worldwide.
Standard therapy with atropine and established oxime-type enzyme reactivators …

Progress in the development of biodegradable ionic liquids (ILs) leads to designing green
surfactant formulations for miscellaneous applications. In this work, we present synthesis of …

Sensitive and rapid detection of organophosphate toxicants is highly relevant and important
in environmental protection and food safety. Owing to this, a carbon quantum dot (CQD) …

Rising global population and increased food demands have resulted in the increased use of
organophosphate pesticides (OPs), leading to toxin accumulation and transmission to …

Post-treatment of organophosphate (OP) poisoning involves the application of oxime
reactivator as an antidote. Structurally different oximes are widely studied to examine their …

The present armamentarium of commercially available antidotes provides limited protection
against the neurological effects of organophosphate exposure. Hence, there is an urgent …
