SIMPLE AND MULTIPLE EMULSIONS FOR DECONTAMINATION OF AN ORGANISM OR SURFACES

The present invention relates to the use of simple or multiple emulsions comprising in their organic phase one or more extractant compounds capable, when said emulsions are brought into contact with an external medium, either biological such as gastric liquid, skin or blood, or artificial such as metal or plastic surfaces, of extracting from said external medium specific toxic molecules capable of binding to said extractant or extractants, for detoxication either by oral, topical or parenteral route, or by simple application to the abovementioned surface.
