Within 1 min following an 80 μg/kg intravenous dose in mice, sarin was detected in the brain, lung and heart, with the highest concentrations in the kidneys, liver and plasma
very fast dispersal rate throughout the body -- compare with reports from Syria
Using laboratory animals as an experimental model, studies demonstrated the short- and the long-term effects of sarin on the nervous system.
potential studies to look further into and how their research compared with the studies after human sarin attacks
Upon their mixing, after firing the weapon, the toxic chemical sarin is formed.
how is sarin typically dispersed? if it must involve the mixing of two compounds into a toxic chemical
organophosphorus compound
from science direct: "Organophosphorus (OP) compounds are defined as derivatives of phosphorus that contain at least one organic group (alkyl or aryl) attached to the phosphorus atom, either directly or indirectly through another element such as oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen. These compounds are often highly toxic and are significant in applications such as pesticides and chemical warfare agents."
Symptoms related to sarin poisoning in Japan still exist 1–3 years after the incident and include fatigue, asthenia, shoulder stiffness, blurred vision, and chronic decline in memory function
points towards long-term effects of survivors
produced for chemical warfare, first produced in Germany in 1937
not a natural phenomenon that has been weaponized -- instead, the origins are based in chemical warfare, during WWII
