Abstract
Isolated rat diaphragms were treated with the oxime HI-6, 25 min after the start of soman exposure for 5, 15, 20 or 25 min. Recovery of neuromuscular transmission (NMT) was smaller and the subsequent spontaneous failure of NMT greater when soman exposure was longer. Diaphragms taken from anaesthetized atropinized soman-poisoned rats treated with HI-6 again showed spontaneous failure of NMT when tested repeatedly in vitro. In vivo pretreatment with a soman simulator prevented reinhibition in vitro. The results are indicative of a simulator-sensitive soman depot in muscles.Entities:
