What Role Does Legislation Play in Addressing Toxicological Risks?
Legislation plays a crucial role in mitigating toxicological risks. Laws such as the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) in the United States are designed to regulate the introduction and use of chemical substances. However, these laws may contain loopholes that permit the use of chemicals without comprehensive safety evaluations. Enhancing legislation to cover all potential risks and ensuring regular updates can close these gaps.
