Toxicogenomics combines toxicology with genomics to study how genetic information influences responses to toxicants. This field aims to identify genetic factors that contribute to susceptibility, uncover mechanisms of toxicity, and develop personalized treatment and prevention strategies. It holds promise for enhancing our understanding of toxicological health risks.
In conclusion, toxicology plays a vital role in understanding and mitigating health problems associated with chemical exposures. By addressing these critical questions, we can better protect human health and the environment from the harmful effects of toxic substances.
