What Techniques are Used to Study Toxicity at the Molecular Level?
Several advanced techniques are employed to study toxicity at the atomic and molecular scale:
1. Mass Spectrometry: Used to identify and quantify toxic substances and their metabolites. 2. NMR Spectroscopy: Provides detailed information on the molecular structure of toxicants. 3. Molecular Docking: Computational technique to predict how a toxicant interacts with its biological target.
