Pollution Toxicology

Pollution toxicology, otherwise called entox, is a multidisciplinary field of science concerned with the investigation of the destructive impacts of different substance, organic and physical specialists on living life forms. Pesticides are a major source of environmental toxicity. These chemically synthesized agents have been known to persist in the environment long after their administration.

Toxicology is the science of poisons, which are sometimes referred to as toxins or toxicants. The former term applies to all natural poisons produced by organisms, such as the botulinum toxin produced by the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. The latter more generic term includes both natural and anthropogenic (human-made) toxicants like dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane (DDT), which is perhaps the most commonly recognized toxicant.
