Protective and Therapeutic Agents for War Gases - Solutions of BAL

A detailed study of aqueous and aqueous-glycol solutions of BAL showed that these systems do not possess sufficient stability to be practical for field use in the treatment of lewisite burns. These findings led to renewed investigation of other solvents for BAL. The results showed that nonhydroxylat...

Zusammenfassung:A detailed study of aqueous and aqueous-glycol solutions of BAL showed that these systems do not possess sufficient stability to be practical for field use in the treatment of lewisite burns. These findings led to renewed investigation of other solvents for BAL. The results showed that nonhydroxylated solvents gave solutions of striking improved stability. Among the solvents which appeared most useful for the therapeutic application of BAL were peanut oil, benzyl benzoate, diethyl phthalate, and triacetin.
