WHAT DOES TOXICATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Toxication

Toxication is the process of metabolism in which the metabolite of a compound is more toxic than the parent drug or chemical. A parent drug or chemical that was previously non-toxic may be called a protoxin. Toxication may involve: ▪ Changing the physicochemical properties to cause a change in the microenvironment ▪ Increasing the potency of a compound ▪ Conversion of the compound into: ▪ Electrophile ▪ Free radical ▪ Nucleophile ▪ Redox-active reactant While toxication is generally undesirable, in certain cases it is required for the in vivo conversion of a prodrug or chemical to a metabolite with desired pharmacological or toxicological activity. Codeine is an example of a prodrug, which is metabolized in the body to the opiate known as morphine.
