What Are the Challenges in Large Scale Toxicology?
Several challenges complicate large scale toxicology studies:
Data Collection: Gathering accurate data across large populations or environmental areas is complex. Variability in Response: Individuals and species may respond differently to the same toxin. Mixtures of Chemicals: Often, exposure is not to a single substance but a mix, complicating analysis. Long-term Effects: Chronic exposure effects may take years to manifest, making it difficult to establish causality.
