What are the Applications of Genetic Testing in Toxicology?
There are several applications: 1. Drug Safety and Efficacy: Identifying genetic predispositions to adverse drug reactions. 2. Occupational Health: Assessing susceptibility to workplace toxins. 3. Environmental Toxicology: Understanding the genetic factors that influence responses to environmental pollutants. 4. Forensic Toxicology: Determining genetic factors that might contribute to unexpected toxicological findings in forensic cases.
