| Description | Isocyanic acid, also known as isocyanate or [C(NH)O], belongs to the class of organic compounds known as organooxygen compounds. These are organic compounds containing a bond between a carbon atom and an oxygen atom. Cyanide is an inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase in the fourth complex of the electron transport chain (found in the membrane of the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells). Tissues that mainly depend on aerobic respiration, such as the central nervous system and the heart, are particularly affected. As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted and the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy. Isocyanic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Isocyanic acid is a potentially toxic compound. Exposure to high levels of cyanide for a short time harms the brain and heart and can even cause coma, seizures, apnea, cardiac arrest and death. Cyanide poisoning is identified by rapid, deep breathing and shortness of breath, general weakness, giddiness, headaches, vertigo, confusion, convulsions/seizures and eventually loss of consciousness. Cyanide binds to the ferric ion of methemoglobin to form inactive cyanmethemoglobin. Cyanide is mainly metabolized into thiocyanate by either rhodanese or 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfur transferase. Chronic inhalation of cyanide causes breathing difficulties, chest pain, vomiting, blood changes, headaches, and enlargement of the thyroid gland. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Isocyanic acid is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Isocyanic acid is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources. |
