Human toxicology is applied in various fields such as pharmaceuticals, food safety, environmental science, and occupational health. In the pharmaceutical industry, toxicologists assess the safety of new drugs by evaluating their potential toxic effects. In food safety, toxicology helps in setting acceptable residue limits for pesticides and other additives. Environmental toxicology studies the impact of pollutants on human health, while occupational toxicology focuses on identifying and managing workplace hazards.
