Categorical and system methodology of visualization in the study of toxicity through the example of glyoxal

The bulk of modern disinfectants are developed on the basis of empirical approach which does not meet the international and national quality standards requirements. A key aim of veterinary and sanitary measures in the food industry enterprises is selection of disinfectants with lower toxicity and side effects on the organism. An obvious example and an object under study is an active organic compound - the smallest dialdehyde glyoxal with the chemical formula C2H2O2 (ethandiol, diformyl, oxalic aldehyde), a yellow-colored liquid with formalin odor, which has a high potency, a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity and a low-level corrosive activity. As one of essential components, glyoxal is in increasing frequently used in the production of various disinfectants. The article suggested applying the visualization and particularization approaches for studying the toxicity assessment of disinfectants through the example of glyoxal. This is done by using the categorical and system methodology (CSM), which is implemented in different categorical schemes (CS) including a triad, pentagram, homeostatic model, contradiction schema, universal model of interaction, compensatory homeostatic model, cross-debate circuit diagram, functional system chart. Regularities of interaction mechanism of elements from various systems using block diagrams are shown and applied. In the process of visual reasoning each diagram represents a particular area of perception in the formation of experimental research. Results of theoretical research provide in general a basis for applying, assessing, and then describing the approved rules and regulations in the study of the toxicity assessment of disinfectants through glyoxal by using categorical diagrams of CSM.
