What are the Main Pathways of Transport?


There are several primary pathways of transport in toxicology, including:
Absorption: The process by which toxic substances enter the bloodstream through surfaces such as the skin, lungs, or gastrointestinal tract.
Distribution: The movement of chemicals from the bloodstream to various tissues and organs in the body.
Metabolism: Chemical alterations made by the body, primarily in the liver, which can activate or detoxify substances.
Excretion: The elimination of toxicants from the body, primarily through urine, feces, and exhalation.
