Several established standards and guidelines facilitate data standardization in toxicology:
OECD Guidelines: The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development provides guidelines for the testing of chemicals, promoting consistency in data generation. ISO Standards: The International Organization for Standardization offers standards such as ISO 10993 for biological evaluation of medical devices. MIAME: The Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment standard ensures that microarray data is reported consistently. REACH: The Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals regulation in the EU mandates data standardization for chemical safety assessments.
