To get ahold of this substance you would need to give a genetic sample and have to TOP MAN 9 perk.They experimented with it as an insectiside @ 1.2% but all of the cattle sprayed with it died within 1 hour (1997).Survival with plain jane nicotine has been reported with doses of up to 4 g, but has not been well studied since 1936. It is very likely that we have seen larger ingestions survive. It is also important to note route, rectal administration bypasses the 'first pass' throught the liver and can result in a much more serious case.Other Supertoxics:Dimethylmercury: Baselt (2000) estimated the average lethal dose of organic mercury compounds, in general, as 100 milligrams. Dioxins: One review article by Reggiani (1978) reports a minimum lethal dose of 1 mcg/kg (Schardein, 2000). Some sources consider Parathion (a type of OP) Supertoxic others Very toxic.In all cases Nicotine is moderatly toxic, but Nicotine Sulfate is ST. The discussion about organophospates is for farm grade stuff not the weaponized varieties that we experimented with.Finally - It is fairly bad form to quote a website. I have one and can put whatever I want on the site - then quote it right back here. Although, I do use one website fairly reqularly in my job - the vaults of Erowyd. Need to know who is making what in their garage this is the place to go.</blockquote>
