The most effective method for preventing skin exposure to chemical warfare agents is the correct and timely use of personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves, suits and boots. However, there are a variety of scenarios under which skin contamination may occur and so it is important to have effective medical countermeasures available to mitigate skin absorption. [Pg.417]

The percutaneous toxicity of chemical warfare agents is primarily related to the rate and extent of percutaneous absorption which, in turn, is subject to a variety of environmental, biological and physicochemical factors. Understanding the basic mechanisms which control skin absorption is essential for developing effective pre- and postexposure medical countermeasures and progress in transdermal technology is likely to yield new challenges and opportunities in the future. [Pg.421]

The editors wish to thank also Colonel James Little, Commander of the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense, for his support of the overall initiative. Dr. James King, who steadfastly pushed us in pursuit of scholarly excellence, and the connibutors for submitting their work in a timely fashion and for making the necessary modifications. The Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense is the Army s lead laboratory for the development of medical countermeasures to chemical warfare agents. It functions as a subordinate command of the... [Pg.7]
