design of safer chemicals

How can we predict the toxicity of new chemicals?

Predicting the toxicity of new chemicals is a complex task that often involves in silico methods, which use computer-based models to simulate how substances interact with biological systems. Additionally, in vitro testing—experiments conducted with cells or tissues in a controlled environment—can provide early indicators of toxicity. Combining these approaches with traditional in vivo studies enhances the reliability of toxicity predictions.
