Several factors contribute to data scarcity in toxicology:
Lack of Funding: Research in toxicology often requires substantial financial resources, which may not always be available. Complexity of Studies: Conducting toxicological studies can be inherently complex, involving multiple variables that are difficult to control. Regulatory Barriers: Strict regulations around animal testing and data sharing can limit the generation and dissemination of toxicological data. Emerging Chemicals: The continuous development of new chemicals outpaces the ability to test each one thoroughly.
