The dose of nerve agent given to North Korean ruler Kim Jong-un's exiled half brother was so high that it killed him within 20 minutes and caused "very serious paralysis", Malaysia's Health Minister has said.
VIDEO: Video: Kim Jong-nam was targeted at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (ABC News)
Key points:
* Kim Jong-nam died "between 15 and 20 minutes from application" of nerve agent VX
* Nerve agent believed to have been produced in sophisticated state weapons laboratory
* Sweep of airport terminal finds no trace of VX toxin
Kim Jong-nam died on February 13 at Kuala Lumpur's international airport, in what Malaysian police say was a well-planned hit by two women who wiped a liquid on his face.

What is VX gas?
* A highly toxic and rapidly acting chemical warfare agent developed in the UK in the 1950s
* The most potent of all nerve agents, it is much more potent than the well-known sarin but works in a similar way
* Symptoms appear within seconds of exposure to the vapour or after exposure to the liquid form
* A large dose of VX may result in convulsions, loss of consciousness, paralysis and respiratory failure possibly leading to death
* It is possible that any visible VX liquid contact on the skin, unless washed off immediately, would be lethal
* Only one person has ever been officially confirmed as having died from VX. If confirmed, Jong-nam would be the second
