Russian term or phrase: политропное действие
Помогите, пожалуйста, разобраться. Мне нужно перевести этот термин на английский. Речь идет о степени опасности вещества (селена) и его действии на организм человека. Поиск в Интернете дал синонимы слова "политропное" (действие), в данном контексте, как многогранное (действие). Т.е., это не в физическом смысле "политропный процесс", а, насколько я понимаю, что-то другое.
Подскажите, кто знает.
Спасибо

effect on various organs
Explanation:
В медицине «политропное действие» означает, просто-напросто, что действие оказывается не на одну, а на несколько функциональных систем (или органов):

«Оказывает на организм политропное действие: влияет на ЦНС, легкие, сердце, печень, почки»

В англоязычной же литературе, насколько можно заметить, не очень жалуют словосочетание "функциональные системы [организма]" (очень широко используемое в наших публикациях), а используют - в том же самом смысле - слово "organs". Поэтому и предлагаю перевести "политропное действие" как "effect on various organs"...

multitropic; multiple action


Explanation:
речь о том, что селен действует на многие разные системы организма, в отличие от, например, нейротропных ядов, действующих на нервную систему.
важно отметить, что речь в данном случае идет не о симптомах и проявлениях со стороны той или иной системы организма, а именно о механизме действия яда, поэтому слово effect употреблять не стоит.

Здесь был сделан перевод с русского, но сайт (National Center for Biotechnology Information) на котором приводятся цитаты тоже не для любителей посплетничать:)

Relationships were identified between the structure of polymethylene amine salts, azole compounds and carbonic acid, and the way they influence human organism. It was also found that inhibitors exercise a polytropic action in man, the toxicity action being concentrated on oxidation processes, and the inhibitors specifically influence protein, carbohydrate and phosphoric metabolisms, as well as the red blood system.
