Corporations, particularly those in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural sectors, are often at the forefront of developing and utilizing chemical substances. Their influence in toxicology is profound, as they not only conduct research and development but also manage the production and distribution of potentially hazardous substances. Corporations are responsible for conducting toxicological assessments to determine the safety of their products. These assessments help in understanding the dose-response relationship, identifying the risk of exposure to chemicals, and setting safe exposure limits. Transparency and adherence to regulatory standards are essential, yet some corporations may face conflicts between profitability and safety, leading to ethical dilemmas.
