Toxicology is the scientific study of the adverse effects of toxins, chemicals, and other harmful substances on living organisms. This field of research involves studying the mechanisms of toxicity, identifying potential risks of exposure, and developing methods to mitigate or prevent harm to human health and the environment. Toxicologists employ a variety of techniques and approaches to assess the toxicity of substances, including animal experimentation, cell culture studies, and computational modeling. The ultimate goal of toxicology is to promote public health and safety by providing evidence-based recommendations for managing and reducing risks associated with toxic substances.
