Organophosphate pesticides

Manufactured by Merck Group

Sourced in United States

Organophosphate pesticides are a class of chemical compounds used in various laboratory applications. They function as inhibitors of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which plays a crucial role in the nervous system of insects and other organisms. These pesticides can be used for the identification, detection, and analysis of various substances in a controlled laboratory setting.

All organophosphate pesticides used for kinetics or as markers were purchased from Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, MO). The Bundeswehr Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology (Munich, Germany) provided cyclosarin (GF), tabun (GA), sarin (GB) and VX. Molecular mass markers for SDS-PAGE were obtained from Bio Rad (Hercules, CA). Kartell Labware provided the commercial soap (LM1).
All the media components for E. coli growth were from Sigma-Aldrich (Italy) except for the yeast extract (Organo-Technie, France) and the tryptone (OXOID, UK).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
