Several factors can influence the serum levels of a toxin:
Metabolic Rate: Individuals with faster metabolic rates may clear toxins more quickly, resulting in lower serum levels. Age and Health Status: The young, elderly, or those with underlying health conditions may metabolize and excrete substances differently. Route of Exposure: The method of exposure (e.g., ingestion, inhalation, dermal) affects absorption rates and subsequent serum levels. Drug Interactions: Concurrent use of other drugs may alter the metabolism and clearance of toxins.
