Sarin nerve gas functions as an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor. Based on your studies of acetylcholine neurotransmission and the anatomy of the autonomic nervous system, describe in detail the physiological mechanisms associated with death by sarin exposure
Homework Answers
SARINE INHIBITS THE ACETYLCHOLINESTRASE ENZYME AND INCREASED ACETYLCHOLINE CONCENTRATION IN SYNAPTIC CLEFT LEADS PARALYSIS OF THAT MUSCLE.
SAME IT WILL LEADS TO PARALYSIS OF RESPIRATORY MUSCLE CAUSE ASPHYXIA
SO, DEATH IN CASE OF SARIN TOXICITY IS DUE TO ASPHYXIA
COMPLETE DETAILED ANSWER IS GIVEN BELOW WITH EXPLAINATION:-
PHYSIOLOGY OF ACETYLCHOLINE NEUROTRANSMISSION IN AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
SARIN AND ITS MECHANISM OF ACTION RESULTING IN DEATH

The The use of chemical weapons in times of war is banned by all modern nations that are not ruled by dictatorial governments. A certain class of chemical agents that could be used as weapons, the organo-phosphorus agents (Sarin gas, VX gas, and others), have characteristic mechanisms of action (toxicodynamics), and are especially deadly. Exposure to even a small amount of these agents causes characteristic signs and symptoms, whose severity occurs in a dose-dependent fashion (the more of the agent...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
