... in response to Toxicity of Metabolites
  1. Jennifer Torola Jennifer Torola United States says:

    Hello!  You stated, "For example, a person with a greater concentration than the average of a particular enzyme needed to metabolize a substance into a toxic metabolite will likely be more affected because it is produced more rapidly." Is there a way for me to be tested for the enzyme?  Could having this enzyme lead to Pure Red Cell Aplasia after using something with Permethrin or Polyethylene glycol?
