Local effects refer to those that occur at the site of first contact between the biologic system and the toxicant. Examples of local effects are demonstrated by the ingestion of caustic substances or inhalation of irritant materials. The obverse of local effects are systemic effects that require absorption and distribution of the toxicant to a site distant from its entry point at which point effects are produced. 4, record 1, English, - systemic%20effect
