Article Synopsis
- Cyanide is a highly toxic chemical that can cause severe cellular damage and death by inhibiting a crucial enzyme in the mitochondria.
- Dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS) has emerged as a promising antidote for cyanide poisoning, converting cyanide to a less harmful compound in the body.
- A new gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy method for analyzing DMTS in rabbit blood has been developed, offering superior accuracy and precision compared to existing methods, positioning it as a potential "gold standard" for further DMTS research.
