Sarin (NATO designation GB [short for G-series, "B"]) is an extremely toxic organophosphorus compound.^[4] A colourless, odourless liquid, it is used as a chemical weapon due to its extreme potency as a nerve agent. Exposure can be lethal even at very low concentrations, where death can occur within one to ten minutes after direct inhalation of a lethal dose,^[5]^[6] due to suffocation from respiratory paralysis, unless antidotes are quickly administered.^[4] People who absorb a non-lethal dose and do not receive immediate medical treatment may suffer permanent neurological damage.^{[citation needed]}

Sarin is widely considered a weapon of mass destruction. Production and stockpiling of sarin was outlawed as of April 1997 by the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1993, and it is classified as a Schedule 1 substance.
