In this in vivo study, we evaluated skin decontamination efficacy against sarin by a synthetic preparation called Mineral Cationic Carrier (MCC£¿) with known ion exchange, absorption efficacy and bioactive potential. Mice were treated with increasing doses of sarin applied on their skin, and MCC£¿ was administered immediately after contamination. The results showed that decontamination with MCC£¿ could achieve therapeutic efficacy corresponding to 3 x LD50 of percutaneous sarin and call for further research %K bioactive potential %K MCC£¿ %K nerve agent %K NOD mice %K sorption powder %K toxicity %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=60368
