Research in toxicology covers a wide range of areas, including:
Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics: Understanding how toxins are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted from the body. Molecular toxicology: Studying the molecular mechanisms by which toxins exert their effects. Environmental toxicology: Investigating the impact of toxic substances on the environment and ecological systems. Occupational toxicology: Assessing the risks and effects of exposure to toxins in the workplace. Regulatory toxicology: Ensuring that chemicals and drugs meet safety standards set by regulatory agencies.
