What Are the Common Methods to Improve Predictive Power?
Several methods are employed to enhance predictive power in toxicology:
1. In vitro testing: Utilizing cell cultures to study the effects of toxic substances. 2. In silico models: Computer-based simulations and algorithms to predict toxicity. 3. Omics technologies: Genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics provide comprehensive data on biological responses to toxins. 4. High-throughput screening: Rapid testing methods that evaluate a large number of substances in a short period.
