Toxicological responses can manifest in numerous ways, depending on the specific toxicant and exposure conditions:
Irritation: This is a common response to many chemicals and can occur in the skin, eyes, or respiratory tract. Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may develop hypersensitivity to specific chemicals, leading to immune-mediated responses. Carcinogenicity: Prolonged exposure to certain toxicants can lead to the development of cancer. Neurotoxicity: Some chemicals can adversely affect the nervous system, leading to symptoms such as tremors, seizures, or cognitive deficits. Hepatotoxicity: The liver, responsible for detoxifying many substances, can itself be damaged by certain toxic agents.
