Intoxication of humans and animals has become increasingly
important in recent years as has contamination of the environment
by a variety of chemicals. In order to develop effective means by
which such intoxication and contamination can be properly handled,
it is imperative to know how these environmental agents act in
humans and animals. Despite studies conducted by various
investigators, the mechanisms of action of these environmental
agents have not been fully elucidated. Insecticides are by no means
an exception in terms of the seriousness of the problem and of the
urgency of the need for such information. In order to complete a
picture of the effects of any particular insecticide, it is of
utmost importance that its actions at various levels ranging from
those of molecules to whole animals be analyzed and synthesized. To
understand the toxicological action on animals or humans, it is not
sufficient to know the action at each level only. The actions at
various levels must be integrated to construct a picture of the
toxic effect on the intact organism. However, in spite of the large
body of information that has been accumulated during the past few
decades, little or no attempt has been made to integrate
experimental data obtained at the molecular, cellular, organ, and
animal levels together in order to define the whole picture of
insecticidal action.
