Abstract: Metabonom ics is an im portant branch of system biology follow ing the developm ent of ge-nom ics, transcriptom ics and proteom ics. It can perform high-throughput detection and data processing with multiple param eters, potentially enabling the identification and quantification of all sm all m etabolites in a biological system . It can be used to provide com prehensive inform ation on the toxicity effects, toxi-cological mechanisms and biom arkers, sensitively finding the unusual m etabolic changes caused by poi-son. This article mainly review s application of m etabonom ics in toxicological studies of abused drugs, pesticides, poisonous plants and poisonous anim als, and also illustrates the new direction of forensic toxi-cology research.
