Hurst (19) discusses the similarity in action of the pyrethrins and of DDT as indicated by a dispersant action on the lipids of insect cuticle and internal tissue. He has developed an elaborate theory of contact insecticidal action but provides no experimental data. Hurst believes that the susceptibility to insecticides depends partially on the cuticular permeability, but more fundamentally on the effects on internal tissue receptors which control oxidative metabolism or oxidative enzyme systems. The access of pyrethrins to insects, for example, is facilitated by adsorption and storage in the lipophilic layers of the epicuticle. The epicuticle is to be regarded as a lipoprotein mosaic consisting of alternating patches of lipid and protein receptors which are sites of oxidase activity. Such a condition exists in both the hydrophilic type of cuticle found in larvae of Calliphora and Phormia and in the waxy cuticle of Tenebrio larvae. Hurst explains pyrethrinization as a preliminary narcosis or knockdown phase in which oxidase action is blocked by adsorption of the insecticide on the lipoprotein tissue components, followed by death when further dispersant action of the insecticide results in an irreversible increase in the phenoloxidase activity as a result of the displacement of protective lipids. This increase in phenoloxidase activity is accompanied by the accumulation of toxic quinoid metabolites in the blood and tissues—for example, O-quinones which would block substrate access to normal enzyme systems. The varying degrees of susceptibility shown by different insect species to an insecticide may be explainable not only in terms of differences in cuticle make-up but also as internal factors associated with the stability of oxidase systems.

The actual temperature of separation is determined by internal and external factors. The internal factor, as it was mentioned earlier, is the generated Joule heat. The external factor is the temperature control applied by the cooling system. A temperature increase decreases the viscosity of the electrolyte and increases the diffusion of the sample, resulting in zone broadening and a decrease in efficiency. 

To investigate physiological reactions occurring in a plant, as it grows and develops or under the action of environmental external and internal factors, researchers employ methods that subjects the plants being studied to stresses. This inevitably has an influence on the final results of such... 

The obvious approach to answering this question is to remove an electron from this orbital and observe the effect on, for example, the metal-metal stretching frequency or metal-metal bond distance. Of course, removal of an electron from the delta bonding orbital creates a positive molecular ion for which determination of these properties may not be possible using normal techniques. In those cases where the ion is sufficiently stable that these properties can be measured, the meaning of the information may be clouded by changes in intermolecular interactions or other internal factors.

The relative importance of the three pathways depends on internal and external factors. External factors such as pH will be discussed in the pages to follow, as will internal factors such as the nature of the adjacent residue. There is, however, one internal factor that can be deduced from Fig. 6.27, namely that Pathway b is priviledged relative to Pathway c since the formation of a five-membered ring is entropically more favorable than that of a six-membered ring [93] [96]. 

In conclusion, it is clear that a variety of stereoelectronic (internal) factors and external conditions favor a substantial positive charge in the transition state of diol epoxides as they undergo hydration or react with nucleophiles [115-118], Interpreting the reactivity of diol epoxides (or of numerous other electrophilic metabolites) in terms of toxification vs. detoxification is particularly difficult since toxicity depends as much on the nature of the endogenous nucleophile as on the intrinsic reactivity of the metabolites. 

While these external and internal factors already provided a difficult foundation, a routine investigation into the company by the US Food Drug Administration (FDA) identified areas of non-compliance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations. The resulting...
