Usage

Description

Diphenylarsenic acid, also known as diphenylarsinic acid, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C12H11AsO3. It is a white solid that is insoluble in water and is known for its use as a pesticide and herbicide. DIPHENYLARSENIC ACID works by disrupting the function of an enzyme involved in the synthesis of amino acids, which leads to the death of the targeted plants or pests. However, it is also highly toxic to humans and animals, causing serious health effects such as skin and eye irritation, respiratory problems, and damage to the nervous system. Due to its toxicity and environmental persistence, the use and production of diphenylarsenic acid have been restricted or banned in many countries.

Uses

Used in Pesticide Industry:
Diphenylarsenic acid is used as a pesticide for controlling pests in agricultural settings. It is effective in targeting and killing pests by disrupting the enzyme function involved in amino acid synthesis, thereby leading to pest mortality.
Used in Herbicide Industry:
In the herbicide industry, diphenylarsenic acid serves as a herbicide to eliminate unwanted plants. Its mode of action is similar to that in pest control, where it interferes with the enzyme responsible for amino acid synthesis in plants, causing their death and thus helping to maintain crop health and productivity.
However, due to the serious health risks and environmental concerns associated with diphenylarsenic acid, its use in these applications has been significantly limited or prohibited in many regions to protect both human health and the environment.

Oral administration of diphenylarsinic acid, a degradation product of chemical warfare agents, induces oxidative and nitrosative stress in cerebellar Purkinje cells

A new clinical syndrome with prominent cerebellar symptoms in patients living in Kamisu City, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, is described. Since the patients ingested drinking water containing diphenylarsinic acid (DPA), a stable degradation product of both diphenylcyanoarsine and diphenylchloroarsine, which were developed for use as chemical weapons and cause severe vomiting and sneezing, DPA was suspected of being responsible for the clinical syndrome. The purpose of the present study was to elucidate prominent cerebellar symptoms due to DPA. The aim of the study was to determine if single (15 mg/kg) or continuous (5 mg/kg/day for 5 weeks) oral administration of DPA to ICR-strain mice induced oxidative and/or nitrosative stress in their brain. Significantly positive staining with malondialdehyde (MDA) and 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) was observed in the cerebellar Purkinje cells by repeated administration (5 mg/kg/day) with DPA for 5 weeks that led to the cerebellar symptoms from a behavioral pharmacology standpoint and by single administration of DPA (15 mg/kg). Furthermore, it is possible that the production of 3-NT was not caused by peroxynitrite formation. The present results suggest the possibility that arsenic-associated novel active species may be a factor underlying the oxidative and nitrosative stress in Purkinje cells due to exposure to DPA, and that the damage may lead to the cerebellar symptoms.
