Spectrox

Spectrox is a substance harvested on the planet Androzani Minor. It is naturally found in the chrysalis of the Spectrox Bat, in dense, white balls.

Unrefined spectrox is a powerful neurotoxin, capable of killing even a Time Lord. (See Spectrox toxaemia.) Refined spectrox, taken in regular doses, can prolong a human lifespan to about twice its ordinary length, greatly slowing the aging process. Because it is so dangerous in its raw form, it is harvested by androids]and brought to special refineries. After this, the spectrox is shipped to [[Androzani Major and then the rest of the galaxy.

Refined spectrox needs to be taken daily, though aging will only continue after a week or so. Because of its uses and rarity, spectrox is one of the most valued substances in the galaxy and many battles were fought over its possession. (DW: The Caves of Androzani)
