Toxicological Studies: Evaluating the Potential Harmful Effects of Chemicals and Ensuring Safety

Hashimoto Kebi

Toxicological studies are necessary for evaluating the potential harmful effects of chemicals and other substances on living organisms. These studies encompass a range of methods and techniques, including in vitro and in vivo studies, acute and chronic evaluations, and risk assessments. The information generated from these studies is essential for regulatory agencies, industry, and consumers to ensure the safety of products and the environment. This short communication provides a brief overview of the key elements of toxicological studies, including toxicity testing, risk assessment, and toxicity data.
