Several techniques are used to study cellular metabolism in toxicology:
- In Vitro Studies: These involve cultured cells or isolated cellular components to study specific metabolic pathways and enzyme activities.
- In Vivo Studies: Animal models are used to study the systemic effects of toxicants and their metabolic transformations.
- Omics Technologies: Genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics provide comprehensive insights into the changes in gene expression, protein levels, and metabolic profiles in response to toxicant exposure.
