Current research in VOC toxicology is focused on understanding the mechanisms of toxicity, identifying susceptible populations, and developing new technologies for detection and reduction of VOC emissions. There is also a growing interest in the study of combined effects of multiple VOCs, as people are often exposed to a mixture of these compounds. Advances in biomonitoring techniques are enhancing our ability to assess human exposure and health risks associated with VOCs.
In conclusion, VOCs present a significant toxicological challenge due to their widespread presence and potential health impacts. Understanding their sources, effects, and control measures is essential for protecting human health and the environment. Continued research and stringent regulatory measures are critical in managing the risks associated with VOCs.
