Tabun
nerve gas GA || On December 23. 1936 Dr. Gerhard Schrader of I.G. FarBen in Germany accidentally isollated ethyl N,N-dimelhylphosphoramidocyanidate) while engaged in his progrm to develop new insecticides since 1934. It was a colorless to brown liquid with a fainty fruity odor. Controlled animal laboratory studies revealed that death could occur within 20 min of exposure. In January 1937. Schrader and his assistant were the first to experierience the effects on humans. A smalldrop spilled on a laboratory bench caused both of them to experience miosis and difficulty in breathing. The chemical was quickly recognized as a new, more deadly. chemical warfare agent. It was inilially designated as Le-lOO, and later as Trilon-83, Tabun. The United States, designated it GA for German Agent A. The first Tabun production was at Elberfeld. Relocated inn 1940 Dyhemfurth. Tabun was apparenlly tested on German death camp inmates
