The process of toxicology testing generally involves several steps:
Test design: Selecting the appropriate tests and methodologies depending on the substance and the endpoint of interest. Exposure assessment: Determining the dose and duration of exposure to the substance. This helps in understanding the dose-response relationship. Data collection and analysis: Gathering data from the tests and analyzing it to interpret the toxicological profile of the substance. Risk assessment: Using the data to assess the potential risk to humans and the environment and to develop safety guidelines.
