Drugs that were purchased in solid form were dissolved in 0.9% saline solution and passed through a 0.22 μm sterile filter prior to administration. HI-6 was synthesized by Kalexsyn Medicinal Chemistry (Kalamazoo, MI) and prepared at 250 mg/ml. Atropine methyl nitrate (AMN) was synthesized by Wedgewood Pharmacy (Swedesboro, NJ) and prepared at 4 mg/ml. Soman was synthesized by the US Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD) and diluted to 360 μg/ml. Atropine sulfate from Sparhawk Laboratories Inc. (Lenexa, KS) was admixed with 2-PAM from Baxter Healthcare Corporation (Deerfield, IL) at final concentrations of 0.9 mg/ml and 50 mg/ml respectively. DEX, ATI, and MDZ were all purchased as pre-formulated USP-grade sterile solutions in saline. DEX and ATI were made by Orion Corporation (Espoo, Finland) at concentrations of 0.5 mg/ml and 5 mg/ml respectively. Midazolam was made by Akorn Inc. (Lake Forest, IL) at 5 mg/ml.

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.
