diossine
Diossine is a term that has appeared in various contexts, sometimes referring to specific chemical compounds and at other times to less clearly defined substances. In a chemical context, the term can be related to dioxins, which are a group of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs). These are organic compounds that are highly toxic and persistent environmental pollutants. They are often byproducts of industrial processes such as waste incineration, chemical manufacturing, and pulp and paper production. Dioxins are known to bioaccumulate in the food chain and can cause a range of adverse health effects in humans and animals, including reproductive and developmental problems, immune system damage, and cancer.
In other, less scientific contexts, "diossine" might be used colloquially or in error to refer to substances
