What Role Does Technology Play in Chemical Identification?
Advancements in technology have significantly enhanced the ability of toxicologists to identify chemicals with greater accuracy and efficiency. High-throughput screening techniques and computational toxicology are revolutionizing the field by enabling rapid analysis of large datasets. Machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence are increasingly being used to predict chemical properties and toxicities, thus supporting more informed decision-making. Furthermore, the development of portable and miniaturized analytical devices is facilitating on-site analysis, crucial for environmental monitoring and emergency response.
