Combination Therapy as Enhanced Antidote to Poisoning

Background

Certain pesticides can be harmful, and there is a need for effective antidotes that can reverse accidental over-exposure by farm workers. UC San Diego researchers have recently developed a therapeutic modality that is a combination of compositions that may be effective as an antidote.

Technology Description

UC San Diego researchers have discovered that certain combinations of chemicals may be useful in combatting accidental exposure to farming-related pesticides. The early biological data suggest promising new approaches, and research is ongoing. A patent application has been filed.
