Standardization addresses several key challenges in toxicology:
Data Comparability: Uniform data formats enable researchers to compare results across different studies, enhancing the reliability of conclusions. Data Integration: Combining datasets from multiple sources is essential for comprehensive analyses, such as meta-analyses and systematic reviews. Regulatory Compliance: Standardized data is crucial for meeting regulatory requirements and facilitating the approval process of new chemicals, drugs, and other substances. Efficient Data Sharing: Standardized formats allow for seamless data exchange among researchers, regulatory bodies, and other stakeholders.
