Brodifacoum is an anticoagulant rodenticide, widely used for the control of rodent population via inhibition of the vitamin K epoxide reductase, causing blood clotting alterations, leading to haemorrhaging as the ultimate cause of death.

Application

Brodifacoum may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in animal samples and biological samples using different chromatography techniques..

Brodifacoum is a widely available superwarfarin used as a commercial rodenticide. Toxicity from long-acting anticoagulant rodenticides, primarily from uncontrolled bleeding, has been reported. Very little published toxicokinetic data are available for human brodifacoum poisoning. Management is also contentious with uncertainty

Superwarfarins are a class of rodenticides. Gastrointestinal hemorrhage is a fatal complication of superwarfarin poisoning, requiring immediate treatment. Here, we report a 55-year-old woman with tardive upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage caused by superwarfarin poisoning after endoscopic cold mucosal biopsy.
