Application of toxicology in silico methods for prediction of acute toxicity (LD50) for Novichoks

Abstract: Novichoks represent the fourth generation of chemical warfare agents with paralytic and convulsive effects, produced clandestinely during the Cold War by the Soviet Union. This novel class of organophosphate compounds is characterised by severe toxicity, which, for example, we have already experienced three times (Salisbury, Amesbury, and Navalny's case) as a society. Then the public debate about the true nature of Novichoks began, realising the importance of examining the properties, especially the toxicologi… Show more

“…The program allows the prediction of the acute rat oral LD50 for the query compound with three different approaches: consensus, hierarchical clustering, nearest neighbor. Further details on TEST were recently published [ 9 ]. Also, it allows the prediction of various physical properties including density, surface tension, viscosity and vapor pressure using the following approaches: consensus, hierarchical clustering, nearest neighbor, group contribution and single model (additional model for viscosity).…”

“…Thus, in silico toxicology is an important field for the assessment of potential chemical warfare agents. Previously, the TEST software was used to predict the acute oral toxicity in rats of Novichok nerve agents [ 9 ]. The ProTox-II program was developed as an alternative to TEST and is an online platform for the prediction of acute oral rat toxicity [ 10 ].…”
