5.0 out of 5 stars
amazing research,
By Chemistry One "Retired Professor" (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chemical Warfare Agents: Toxicity at Low Levels (Hardcover)
I did not read the whole book, which was quite technical.
There was a section describing the nerve agent soman, and the separation of its four stereoisomers by capillary gas chromatography. There was also research described in which the four stereoisomers were separated and had their individual toxicities determined in animals. This section was fascinating and its contemplation gave me the shivers to think of the danger involved handling this dreadful poison. One thing I would criticize( as a neophyte in this area of research) is the constant use of acronyms. A glossary would be very helpful. I noticed one error : the authors characterized dieldrin and aldrin as organophosphates, which they are not. |
