Trilithium resin is a highly toxic and explosive compound produced as a waste by-product of matter-antimatter reactions, whose only useful application is as a weapon. However, storing and moving it is a highly delicate process and requires specialized equipment. In 2369, a group of weapons dealers led by Kelsey attempted to steal trilithium resin from the [[Warp Core]] of the USS Enterprise-D while it was undergoing a baryon sweep at Arkaria Base. They were stopped by Captain Jean-Luc Picard. (TNG: "Starship Mine")

When introduced into an atmosphere, trilithium resin acts as a biogenic weapon and is lethal to [[Human]]s (but not [[Cardassian]]s). Two hundred kilograms of trilithium resin is enough to make a planet uninhabitable to Humans for fifty years. Captain Benjamin Sisko poisoned the atmosphere of [[Solosos III]] with trilithium resin in 2373 in response to Michael Eddington's use of [[Cobalt Diselenide]]. (DS9: "For the Uniform")
