It is recognised that the cytotoxicity of a number of xenobiotics is mediated through the production of reactive metabolites (1). Given this, and the current emphasis on the development of in vitro tests for assessment of xenobiotic cytotoxicity (2), it is of considerable interest to develop systems for the detection in vitro of cytotoxic reactive metabolites. Indeed, it would seem appropriate to employ a limited battery of tests for detection of xenobiotic-mediated cytotoxicity, some of which would be dedicated to assessment of the role of metabolism in such toxicity. The aim of this review is to identify and discuss the approaches currently being employed to this end, and to suggest some possible future trends.
