metabolic variability

What is Metabolic Variability in Toxicology?


Metabolic variability refers to the differences in the metabolic processes that occur among individuals, populations, or species. In the context of toxicology, this variability can significantly influence how a chemical or drug is metabolized, leading to differences in toxicity, efficacy, and the duration of action. These differences can arise from genetic factors, environmental influences, age, sex, and health status.
