How is Fluorescence Spectroscopy Applied in Toxicology?
In toxicology, fluorescence spectroscopy is used to detect and quantify toxic substances in biological fluids, tissues, and environmental samples. It is particularly useful in the study of drug metabolism, the identification of xenobiotics, and the monitoring of biochemical changes in response to toxic exposure. The technique can also be used to study the mechanisms of action of various toxins at the molecular level.
