Poisoning with the S-Alkyl organophosphorus insecticides profenofos and prothiofos
QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 09/10/09
Eddleston M et al. – Compared with other commonly used OP insecticides, profenofos and prothiofos are of moderately severe toxicity, causing relatively delayed respiratory failure and death. There was no apparent response to oxime therapy. The lack of correlation between red cell AChE activity and clinical features suggests that this parameter may not always be a useful marker of synaptic AChE activity and severity after OP pesticide poisoning.
