Excretion and the liver Excretion in mammals Excretion is the removal of potentially harmful or toxic substances from the body. These substances are usually waste materials produced by complex chemical reactions taking place in living cells. Enzymes catalyse the reactions.
Metabolic waste is the leftover, sometimes toxic, products of the metabolic process, such as salt and ammonia (nitrogenous waste). Hyperammonemia is an example of what can happen if the body is not able to remove its metabolic waste. It's a serious condition that means your body is overrun with ammonia because the liver isn't working properly.
