Blood Agents - General

Blood Agents are compounds that stop the transfer of oxygen from the blood system to the rest of the body by inhibiting the enzyme cytochrome oxidase. The lack of oxygen rapidly affects all body tissues, especially the central nervous system. Some Blood Agents will also cause lung membranes to swell and become filled with liquid (pulmonary edema). [Pg.71]

LC50S for inhalation of Blood Agents are as low as 180 ppm (10 minute exposure). [Pg.71]

Effects from vapor exposure begin to appear 1 to 2 minutes after exposure. Pulmonary edema caused by inhalation of some Blood Agents may be delayed for several hours. Effects from liquid exposure may be delayed from several minutes up to 2 hours after exposure. [Pg.71]
