Deadly substance (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

poison

'deadly substance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for poison that I've seen before include "Dangerous substance" , "It causes illness or death in a living organism" , "Meat for someone else" , "Eg, strychnine" , "Venom, toxin" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the Universal.
