What are some key technologies used in toxicology laboratories?
In toxicology laboratories, several key technologies are employed to analyze chemical substances and their effects. Mass spectrometry is widely used for identifying and quantifying chemicals in biological samples. Genomics and proteomics techniques provide insights into how toxins affect gene and protein expression. Additionally, cell culture systems and organs-on-chips offer more accurate models for studying human toxicological responses without relying on animal testing.
