Description

Merphos is a nitrogen-containing compound that is used in the production of monoclonal antibodies. It is also used in cell lysis and as an effective dose for growth regulators. Merphos has been shown to inhibit acetylcholinesterase, which leads to increased cholinergic activity. In addition, Merphos has been shown to cause cancer at high doses and can be toxic to the liver. Merphos is not absorbed by oral administration, but it can be absorbed through the skin or lungs. At low doses, Merphos has no health effects and can be used as a defoliant in agriculture.
