How Can New Technologies Contribute to Improvement?
Technological advances play a pivotal role in continuous improvement. Some key technologies include:
High-throughput screening (HTS): Allows rapid testing of numerous chemicals for potential toxicity. Omics technologies: Genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics provide comprehensive insights into biological responses to toxicants. In vitro models: Advanced cell culture techniques and organ-on-a-chip systems enhance the prediction of human responses. Computational toxicology: Uses computer models to predict toxicity and reduce the need for animal testing.
