What are the Methods Used in Toxicological Research?
Toxicological research employs a range of methods including:
1. Analytical Chemistry: Techniques like chromatography and mass spectrometry are used to detect and quantify toxicants. 2. Molecular Biology: Methods such as PCR and gene expression profiling help in understanding the genetic and molecular basis of toxicity. 3. Bioinformatics: Computational tools are used to analyze large datasets and predict toxicological pathways.
