Título Acute toxicity and cholinesterase inhibition in vivo of bromophos-ethyl.
Información bibliográfica June 1973, Vol.25, No.2, p.180-189. Illus. 17 ref.
Resumen This report is intended to facilitate the handling of the insecticide bromophos-ethyl (0-(4-bromo-2,5-dichlorophenyl)-0,0-diethyl phosphorothioate) and to indicate suitable antidotes in case of poisoning. Tests were carried out on mice, rats and other animal species with a view to determining acute toxicity, mucosal compatibility, neurotoxicity, antagonism and synergism, and inhibition of cholinesterase. Results indicate that bromophos-ethyl is among the phosphorus acid esters showing moderate toxicity. In combination with certain organic phosphorus acid esters, toxicity is increased; chlorinated hydrocarbons reduce the toxicity. Reactivation of the cholinesterase is possible with oximes (obidoximechloride, trimedoximebromide) especially in combination with atropine.
