The advantages of hybrid techniques in toxicology are manifold:
Increased Sensitivity: By combining methods, hybrid techniques can detect lower concentrations of chemicals that might be missed by standalone methods. Enhanced Specificity: The ability to distinguish between structurally similar compounds reduces the risk of false positives and improves data accuracy. Comprehensive Analysis: Hybrid techniques provide a more holistic view of the sample by offering both quantitative and qualitative data. Time Efficiency: These techniques often reduce the time required for sample preparation and analysis compared to using multiple separate methods.
