What are vesicant agents?
Blister Agents
Vesicant blister agents include sarin lewisite phosgen oxime or nitrogen mustard?
Sarin is a nerve agent, not a vesicant blister agent. Vesicant blister agents such as lewisite, phosgene oxime, and nitrogen mustard cause blistering on the skin and mucous membranes. Sarin, on the other hand, disrupts the nervous system and does not primarily cause blistering.
Vesicant (blister) agents include all of the following EXCEPT Sarin Phosgene oxime Nitrogen Mustard Lewisite?
Vesicant agents, or blister agents, primarily include substances like nitrogen mustard, Lewisite, and phosgene oxime, which cause severe skin and respiratory damage. However, Sarin is not a vesicant; it is a nerve agent that disrupts the normal functioning of the nervous system. Therefore, the correct answer is Sarin, as it does not belong to the category of blister agents.
What CBRNE agents cause vesicant blisters?
Vesicant agents, commonly known as blister agents, include chemical warfare agents such as mustard gas (sulfur mustard) and Lewisite. These substances cause severe skin and mucous membrane irritation, leading to painful blisters. Mustard agents can also have long-term effects on respiratory health and are known for their persistence in the environment. Other agents, such as phosgene oxime, also exhibit vesicant properties.

Does Nitrogen Mustard Vesicant blister?
Yes, nitrogen mustard vesicants are known to cause blistering. These compounds can damage the skin and mucous membranes, leading to severe blister formation upon contact. They act as alkylating agents, interfering with cellular processes and resulting in tissue injury. The severity of the blistering depends on the concentration and duration of exposure.

Vesicants are also known as what?
Blister Agents
Blister agents include all of the following EXCEPT?
Blister agents, also known as vesicants, primarily include substances like mustard gas, lewisite, and phosgene oxime, which cause severe blistering and damage to the skin and mucous membranes. However, agents such as nerve agents (e.g., sarin or VX) do not fall under the category of blister agents, as they function primarily by disrupting the nervous system rather than causing blisters. Therefore, any mention of nerve agents would be an exception in the context of blister agents.
What do blister agents attack?
