Abstract
The effect in rabbits of the sarinase levels of liver and plasma, and of cholinesterase levels of plasma, on survival after repeated intraperitoneal or subcutaneous doses of sarin has been in-vestigated. When the intraperitoneal route was used, a significant correlation was found between liver sarinase and survival. Survival after subcutaneous injection was not affected by the liver sarinase. No correlation was found between plasma sarinase or plasma cholinesterase and survival for either the intraperitoneally or subcutaneously injected rabbits.Keywords
