Blood Agents - Arsenic Based

Inhalation LC50S of Arsenical Blood Agents are as low as 157 ppm (10 minute exposure). [Pg.75]

Effects from exposure can be delayed from 20 minutes up to 36 hours depending on the level of exposure. [Pg.75]

Arsenical Blood Agents are gases or solids. Gases are colorless with a mild garlic-like odor. Effects from cumulative exposure may occur at levels below tlie odor threshold. Solids produce arsine gas (AsH,) when they come into contact with moisture. [Pg.75]

Gaseous Arsenical Blood Agents are nonpersistent. Solid agents will retain the potential to produce arsine (AsHg) until they react with water. [Pg.75]

Emergency Action for Chemical and Biological Warfare Agents [Pg.76]

Organic arsenicals are a series of blister agents based around a chloroarsine (AsCD molecule in which one of the chlorine atoms is replaced by an organic radical. These chloroarsine are effective cytochrome oxidase destroyers, or blood agents. Many organic radicals penetrate human skin, carrying their compoxmds with them (Cohen et al., 2006). [Pg.175]
