INVESTIGATION OF EFFICACY OF A DCBRN-01VN SKIN DECONTAMINANT AGAINST ORGANOPHOSPHATE AGENT

Abstract

This research has been initiated to examine the effectiveness of DCBRN-01VN lotion in degrading some readily available organic phosphorous (OP). UPLC-MS/MS technique was used to measures the amount of residual pesticide via selected ion monitoring. The results showed that lotion effectively degrades OP expediently. The removal efficiency is nearly 100% with MP at 6th min and MT at 2nd min when the molar ratio of KBDO and OP is 10:1. The results in vivo test with both solutions (MP and MT) on pig skin showed that the toxic removal efficiency was over 90%, for MP was over 98%.
