Which Nerve Agent is the Most Evil? (Nerve Agent Lore)

Nerve agents are completely terrifying - in this episode I discuss the different classes of nerve agents, and we determine which ones are the most EVIL. Exposure to nerve agents is usually treated with atropine and pralidoxime chloride (2-PAM chloride). Nerve agents inhibit acetylcholinesterase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of acetylcholine. Some nerve agents covalently bind to the enzyme, and can damage the active site of the enzyme, so the acetylcholine builds up, the signal keeps sending, and the motor neurons keep firing. The G series and V series of nerve agents were mass produced, weaponized agents, while the EA series, A series, and others are not known to be mass produced or weaponized.
