TEPP (Tetraethyl pyrophosphate, Pestanal) is highly toxic in nature both by skin absorption and inhalation. It is an organic phosphate pesticide, acting acts as an inhibitor of cholinesterase. It is soluble in water and is slowly decomposed by water. It may be found as a dry mixture or in the liquid state.
