Toxicologists employ various methods to assess chemical sensitivity. These include:
Animal Studies: Animal models are used to identify potential toxic effects and sensitive populations. However, the differences between species require careful extrapolation to human sensitivity. In Vitro Testing: Laboratory-based studies using human cells can provide insights into cellular responses to chemical exposures. Epidemiological Studies: Observational studies in human populations help identify correlations between chemical exposures and health outcomes, particularly in sensitive subgroups.
