What Are the Future Directions for Toxicology Experiments?
The future of toxicology experiments lies in the integration of new technologies and methodologies:
Omics Technologies: The use of genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics allows for a comprehensive understanding of the molecular pathways affected by toxins.
3D Cell Cultures: These provide more realistic models for studying toxicity compared to traditional two-dimensional cultures, offering better insights into tissue-specific responses.
High-Throughput Screening: This technology enables the rapid testing of thousands of compounds, accelerating the identification of potential toxicants.
