Poisoning is an unpleasant phenomenon that can occur due to the ingestion of a toxic substance into the body.
We will talk about a sign of poisoning by one of the substances.
You can tell if chloropicrin has entered your body by the appearance of a mustard smell. TASS reports details with reference to the head of the molecular modeling laboratory of the NTI Competence Center "Digital Materials Science: New Materials and Substances" Evgeny Aleksandrov.
It is noted that chloropicrin is a toxic substance that can cause irritation of the mucous membranes when inhaled.
According to Aleksandrov, when inhaling this substance, a mustard smell often appears, which may not arouse suspicion. If there are many inhalations, then deterioration may occur.
He noted that chloropicrin is used in agriculture to eliminate insects and fungi. High concentrations of the substance make it poisonous.
