Book Description
Need to know about “Top Ten Deadliest Poisons Known To Humanity." A Concise Overview. When asked to name a poison, people may well think of cyanide, arsenic, or strychnine. But these are not the most toxic substances known. More poisonous than these, but still not near the top of the tree, is tetrodotoxin, the pufferfish toxin that poisons around 50 Japanese people every year. The fish is a delicacy in Japan but can be lethal if prepared incorrectly. It also crops up in the blue-ringed octopus and was more recently discovered in tiny frogs in Brazil. The LD50 (Lethal Dose, 50 percent) – the amount needed to kill 50 percent of the test population – is how toxicity is most often assessed and is usually quoted per kilogram of body weight. On this scale, for example, sodium cyanide comes out at around 6 milligrams per kg. The LD50 of tetrodotoxin, by comparison, is around 300 micrograms per kg if orally ingested, and as little as 10 micrograms per kg if injected. Assessing toxicity is not easy. The chemical state of a substance is important, as is how we ingest it. Nevertheless, here is a representative selection of 10 truly deadly poisons, all at least a hundred times more toxic than cyanide, arsenic, or strychnine. Have you ever wondered that what do those deadly poisons which are shown in the TV shows or about which we read in the newspaper actually do your body. It is really very difficult to digest that technology has improved so well that even the deadly poisons can be manufactured. People are aware of the fact that they are dangerous and there will be loss of life, but they are still manufactured. Thus, it is strived in this E-Booklet to describe concisely 10 deadliest poisons known to Humanity along with plenty of ILLUSTRATIONS for better understanding of the enthusiastic medicos at one click! …Dr. H.
