What are the Advantages of Using DNA Microarrays in Toxicology?
One of the main advantages of DNA microarrays is their ability to analyze the expression of thousands of genes simultaneously, providing a holistic view of cellular responses. This high-throughput capability allows for the rapid screening of multiple toxicants. Moreover, DNA microarrays facilitate the identification of gene expression patterns that are predictive of toxicological effects, supporting the development of predictive models of toxicity.
