Limited data can have several implications in the field of toxicology:
Uncertainty in Risk Assessment: Insufficient data can lead to uncertainties in determining the potential risks of a chemical, which can affect public health decisions. Regulatory Challenges: Regulators may face difficulties in setting safe exposure limits or banning harmful substances due to lack of conclusive evidence. Public Mistrust: Inadequate data can sometimes lead to public mistrust in regulatory decisions, especially when there are conflicting reports about the safety of a product.
