What role does toxicological assessment play in industrial processes?
Toxicological assessment is the evaluation of the potential adverse health effects of chemical substances used in industrial processes. This assessment involves identifying hazards, evaluating dose-response relationships, and estimating exposure levels. By understanding the toxicological profiles of chemicals, industries can develop safer processes, substitute less hazardous materials, and establish appropriate safety measures. Toxicological data also supports regulatory compliance and informs risk communication strategies.
