Chemical weapon agent studies in domestic swine : part 5 : comparative bioavailability of different HI-6 salt forms in the domestic pig / prepared by: Kinchyle Enterprises Inc.D68-3/170-2002E-PDF

"A well-developed anesthetized domestic swine model has been utilized to study the following effect of chemical weapons (CW): 01 - Comparative bioavailability of different HI-6 salt forms in the domestic pig. The bioavailability of the dihydrochloride salt of HI-6a (currently utilized) was compared to that of the dimethanesulfonate salt (HI-6b). The latter is more water-soluble at low temperatures. The salts appear similarly clinically, biochemically or hematologically in the "equivalent" doses administered (HI-6 dihychloride = 500 mg, HI-6 dimethanesulfonate = 633 mg.) A notable exception might be the observation that the combination of pyridostigmine (PYR)/HI-6b increases airway resistance. Timed plasma and urine samples were collected for HPLC analysis"--Abstract, page i.
