Recent advances in toxicology are improving our ability to identify unknown toxicity:
- High-throughput Screening: This technique allows for the rapid testing of thousands of compounds for toxic effects, significantly speeding up the discovery process. - Omics Technologies: Genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics provide comprehensive data on how substances interact with biological systems, offering insights into potential toxic effects. - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: These technologies are being used to analyze large datasets and predict toxicity, improving the accuracy and efficiency of toxicological assessments.
