    Xenochemical

    What is a xenochemical? - all in know is that it is a chemical that is foreign to the body; but I need to describe what it is rather than just giving a definition.

    I've 'googled' it but can't find anything at all that way.

    Thanks in advance x

    xenobiotic is in the OED. Look it up as gives good description. xenochemical would not be allowed on 'countdown' as not in OED. Therefore, just a word your lecturer made up to confuse you.
