HI-6 rapidly reactivated human blood acetylcholinesterase inhibited by dimethoxy organophosphorus compounds, while the dimethoxy-inhibited enzyme was mainly resistant to the treatment by HI-6.
Although both HI-6 and pralidoxime chloride reactivated the red blood cell cholinesterase in quinalphos-poisoned subjects, the return of enzyme activities was more rapid following the use of HI-6.

Despite similar blood acetylcholinestarase (AChE) levels in both the exposed and control subjects, a significant number of exposed subjects had altered plantar and ankle reflexes.

The most rapid increase in red blood cell acetylcholinesterase activity was noted within 24 h after the first treatment with oximes Pralidoxime and/or HI-6.

Incidence of numerous human poisonings by quinalphos (Ekalux, Bayrusil) in agricultural areas near Belgrade initiated this study on the ability of the compound to inhibit hen brain neuropathy target esterase, acetylcholinesterase and plasma butyrylcholinesterase in vivo.

The effects of chronic sub-lethal doses (7-14 mg kg-1 a day for 15 days) of quinalphos were evaluated in adult male rats for changes in testicular morphology, circulatory concentrations of hormones (LH, FSH, prolactin and testosterone), activities of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) as well as metabolism of biogenic amines (dopamine, noradrenaline and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)) in the hypothalamus and pituitary.
