Toxizität | A highly toxic material that kills by disrupting energy metabolism. Specifically, fluorocitrate inhibits aconitase, the enzyme responsible for conversion of citrate to isocitrate in the citric acid (Krebs) cycle. It is likely that the toxicities of fluoroacetamide and fluoroacetate can be attributed to their conversion in vivo to fluorocitrate. |
