What are the Key Tools Used in Toxicology Informatics?
Several tools and databases are essential in toxicology informatics. QSAR models (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) are widely used to predict the toxicity of chemical compounds based on their molecular structure. Public databases like ToxCast and Tox21 provide valuable data for screening chemicals. Software tools such as KNIME and R offer platforms for data analysis and visualization, making it easier for toxicologists to interpret complex datasets.
