Toxaphene
|
D014112 |
[A very complex, but reproducible mixture of at least 177 C10 polychloro derivatives, having an approximate overall empirical formula of C10-H10-Cl8. It is used as an insecticide and may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen: Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)

Toxascariasis
|
D017227 |
[Infections with nematodes of the genus TOXASCARIS.

|
Toxascaris
|
D014114 |
[An ascarid nematode found primarily in the small intestine of the larger Felidae as well as dogs and cats. It differs from TOXOCARA in that the larvae do not migrate through the lungs. It does occasionally produce visceral larva migrans (LARVA MIGRANS, VISCERAL) in man, although more rarely than does Toxocara.

Toxic Optic Neuropathy
|
D000081028 |
[Damage to the eye or its function (e.g., VISUAL IMPAIRMENT) due to OPTIC NERVE damage secondary to toxic substances such as drugs used in CHEMOTHERAPY; IMMUNOTHERAPY; or RADIATION.

Toxicity Tests
|
D018675 |
[An array of tests used to determine the toxicity of a substance to living systems. These include tests on clinical drugs, foods, and environmental pollutants.

Toxicity Tests, Acute
|
D023382 |
[Experiments designed to determine the potential toxic effects of one-time, short-term exposure to a chemical or chemicals.

|
Toxicity Tests, Chronic
|
D036401 |
[Experiments designed to determine the potential toxic effects of a long-term exposure to a chemical or chemicals.

|
Toxicity Tests, Subchronic
|
D059550 |
[Experiments designed to determine the potential toxic effects of mid-term (a few months) exposure to a chemical or chemicals.

|
Toxicodendron
|
D012251 |
[A genus (formerly part of Rhus genus) of shrubs, vines, or trees that yields a highly allergenic oleoresin which causes a severe contact dermatitis (DERMATITIS, TOXICODENDRON). The most toxic species are Toxicodendron vernix (poison sumac), T. diversilobum (poison oak), and T. radicans (poison ivy). T. vernicifera yields a useful varnish from which certain enzymes (laccases) are obtained.

|
Toxicogenetics
|
D043922 |
[The study of existing genetic knowledge, and the generation of new genetic data, to understand and thus avoid DRUG TOXICITY and adverse effects from toxic substances from the environment.
, The collection, interpretation and storage of information about gene and protein activity in order to identify toxic substances in the environment and those populations at greatest risk to environmental diseases.
] |
|
Toxicokinetics
|
D066007 |
[The quantitation of the body's metabolism of toxic xenobiotic compounds, as measured by the plasma concentration of the toxicant at various time points.

|
Toxicology
|
D014116 |
[The science concerned with the toxins produced by bacteria, plants, and animals.
, The science concerned with the detection, chemical composition, and biological action of toxic substances or poisons and the treatment and prevention of toxic manifestations.

Toxiferine
|
D014117 |
[A curare alkaloid that is a very potent competitive nicotinic antagonist at the neuromuscular junction.

|
Toxin-Antitoxin Systems
|
D000075704 |
[Mechanisms that allow bacteria and archaea to rapidly adapt to changing environmental conditions via a toxin, produced during adverse conditions, that inhibits a specific vital process, and a partner antitoxin that blocks the effects of the toxin, under normal growth conditions.
] |
|
Toxins, Biological
|
D014118 |
[Specific, characterizable, poisonous chemicals, often PROTEINS, with specific biological properties, including immunogenicity, produced by microbes, higher plants (PLANTS, TOXIC), or ANIMALS.

Toxocara
|
D014119 |
[A genus of ascarid nematodes commonly parasitic in the intestines of cats and dogs.
