Toxicokinetic determinations are of crucial importance within the context of a teratology study on a pharmaceutical because of the major influence of pharmacokinetic parameters on the induction of malformations by teratogenic agents.

Teratogenic agents have specific mechanisms through which they exert their pathogenic effects. 

Teratology is the study of chemical-induced birth defects. The work of the regulatory teratologist is to identify teratogenic agents before they can harm the human population.

Teratogenic agents may be drugs taken during pregnancy radiation, both ionizing and nonionizing environmental pollutants chemical hazards in the workplace dietary deficiencies and natural contaminants. 

While the literature abounds with reports of the undesirable reproductive consequences of DDT exposure at all levels of animal systems, little human research in this area has made its way into the open literature. Shepard s Catalog of Teratogenic Agents (ref. 86) and Nisbet-Karch (ref. 47) each list only the work of O Leary et al. (ref. 87), correlating spontaneous abortion in human females with human pesticide residues, and prematurity of human fetuses with DDE levels found in fetal whole blood. Perhaps the more serious risk with DDT and DDE is the significant presence of these two along with other...

Susceptibility to teratogenic agents varies with the developmental stage at the time of exposure. 

Teratogenic agents act through specific mechanisms on developing cells and tissues to initiate abnormal embryogenesis (pathogenesis).
