High resolution is essential in toxicology for several reasons:
1. Sensitivity: High-resolution techniques provide enhanced sensitivity, allowing for the detection of trace amounts of toxic substances that might not be identified using lower resolution methods. 2. Specificity: These techniques offer improved specificity, enabling the differentiation between closely related compounds that may have similar toxicological profiles. 3. Accuracy: High resolution ensures more accurate quantification of toxicants, which is critical for dose-response assessments and regulatory compliance. 4. Comprehensive Analysis: It allows for the comprehensive analysis of complex mixtures, identifying multiple toxicants simultaneously.
