Sun Manji, male, Han nationality, is a native of Kaifeng, Henan Province. He graduated from No. 5 Military Medical University in 1954. He is an academician and a biochemical pharmacologist.
A former researcher for the poison and medicine research institute of the Military Medical Academy of Science, Sun studied biochemical mechanisms on chemical battling agent poisoning and its prevention and cure. His research revealed an aging mechanism of soman phosphinylidyne AchE. Sun's experiments later revealed the effecting mechanism of sulfur mustard gas towards human skin DNA and the molecular basis of animal skin damage signs.
He discovered the existence of enzymatic synthesis of G toxoid and free toxicin poisoned animals. He studied the mode of V toxoids effects on AchE. In addition, he found two categories of VX metabolic enzymes, those needing oxygen and those not needing oxygen.
Sun was elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1991.
