Toxic Characteristics of Fluorocitrate, the Toxic Metabolite of Compound 1080 Peter J, Savarje
TOXIC CHARACTERISTICS OF FLUOROCITRATE, THE TOXIC METABOLITE OF COMPOUND 1080 PETER J, SAVARJE. Denver Wildlife Research Center. U.S. Flsh and Wllclllfe Service, Building 16, Federal Center. Denver. Colorado 80225 ABSTRACT: This paper reviews toxicological research involving fluorocitrate, the toxic metabolite of sodium monofluoroacetate (fluoroacetate), which is the active ingredient in the pesticide Compound 1080. Many toxicological studies have been done with fluoroacetate and the results obtained are actually due to the fluorocitrate because it has been definitely proved that, from a biochemical perspective,fluoro acetate is not toxic but fluorocitrate is. The classical explanation of the toxic action of fluoroci trate is that it inhibits the enzyme aconitase in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Deactivation of aconitase results in decreased energy production by cells and ultimately death of the organism. However, the more recent explanation of fluorocitrate's mode of action is that it binds with mito chondrial protein which prevents transport of citrate and its utilization by cells for energy production. Metabolism ~tudies indicate that only small amounts, perhaps less than 3%, of fluorocitrate is fonned from fluoroacetate. From the limited number of acute and chronic studies conducted with fluorocitrate it does not appear to be as potent as fluoroacetate by either the oral or parenteral routes of admini· stration. This decreased level of toxicity is thought to be due to the larger molecular weight of fluorocitrate which would not be as readily absorbed by tissues. Central nervous system toxic mani festations (i.e., tremors, convulsions) are characteristic in many animals poisoned with fluoroacetate. Fluorocitrate administered directly into the brain was found to be 100 times more toxic than fluoro acetate. -

Toxicology of Ω-Fluorocarboxylic Acids
Volume LXVll, 1998, no. 1 VOJENSKÉ ZDRAVOTNICKÉ LISTY - SUPLEMENTUM 23 TOXICOLOGY OF œ-FLUOROCARBOXYLIC ACIDS Jiří PATOČKA, Jiří CABAL Purkyně Military Medical Academy, Hradec Králové Summary At this time we know thousands of organofluorine compounds and many of them are very toxic for humans (1). Mainly fluoroacetic acid and many other alifatic monofluoro compounds satisfied criteria of reliable poisons (2) and several these compounds were examined during the last war for possible use as chemical warfare agents (3-5). Author of this article hopes that more widespread knowledge of these very dangerous compounds may act as a deterrent to their illegal use and that concern may be stimulated in the search for more satisfactory methods of medical treatment.
