Veneno
Veneno es cualquier sustancia que causa disturbios o un efecto perjudicial cuando se administra a un organismo vivo.[1] Otra definición establece que el veneno es cualquier sustancia o mezcla de sustancias que pueden ser potencialmente mortales.[2] The term poison is closely related to the amount as high doses of a substance can be harmful, and at the same time not cause injury in a lower dose.[1][nota 1]
