Accelerator, holding a flash of Nephentesion No. 7.
Nephentesion No. 7 (タンパク質溶解液 Tanpaku-shitsu Yōkaieki?, lit. Protein Solution) is a chemical used by DA.
Etymology[]
The chemical's name is a reference to the Nepenthes genus of carnivorous plants. They are pitcher-like plants that lure in insects with an alluring fragrance before trapping them in in their pitcher filled with flesh-dissolving enzymes to dissolve them. Whether Nephentesion No. 7 is made out of their acid is unknown.
Principles[]
The chemical and its effects
It is a protein solvent that can apparently be used in destroying corpses. DA uses the chemical substance to destroy corpses in order to cut their connection to them.[1][2]
In the anime, the chemical is a blue-colored liquid.[2]

DA attempted to use the chemical on Hitokawa Hasami but were prevented from doing so by the return of Accelerator, who was waiting to catch them in the act.[1] In the anime adaptation, Accelerator secretly took the Nephentesion No. 7 from the DA members as he left, before throwing the liquid towards them on returning.[2]
