Toxicology can be divided into several sub-disciplines, including:
Clinical Toxicology: Focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of poisoning in humans. Forensic Toxicology: Involves the investigation of toxic substances in legal contexts, such as in cases of suspected poisoning or drug use. Environmental Toxicology: Studies the impact of environmental pollutants on ecosystems and human health. Occupational Toxicology: Evaluates the risks of chemical exposure in the workplace and develops safety guidelines.
