There are several types of epidemiological studies used in toxicology, including:
Cohort Studies: These studies follow a group of individuals over time to assess how exposure to a toxicant affects health outcomes compared to a non-exposed group. Case-Control Studies: This type involves comparing individuals with a particular health condition to those without, to identify potential exposure risk factors. Cross-Sectional Studies: These are observational studies that analyze data from a population at a specific point in time, examining the prevalence of exposures and outcomes.
