Zinc phosphide Overview

Оглавление

As with other rodenticides, zinc phosphide poisoning can be accidental or malicious in small animals. Secondary (or relay) poisoning has been reported in dogs feeding on the dead rodents and other animals poisoned by zinc phosphide. When zinc phosphide reaches the stomach, on exposure to moisture and an acidic environment, it hydrolyses to phosphine gas which is rapidly absorbed across the gastric mucosa and distributed systemically where it exerts its toxic effect (Proudfoot, 2009).
