Toxicology



We get exposed to lots of chemicals in the form of medicines, cosmetics and various other kinds of xenobiotic agents. The extent to which they can affect our living system the positive and negative effects they elicit, the adverse outcome etc. are dealt in Toxicology Studies

The adverse outcome may be a disease, disorder, discomfort or irregularity in growth patterns.
The dose is the major factor which influences and determines toxicity. Greater the exposure to a chemical greater is its toxicity. LD50 is the major term considered in toxicology.
With focus on particular aspects of Toxicology, there are several subspecialties like
·         Toxicogenomics
·         Toxicologic Pathology
·         Genetic Toxicology
·         Forensic Toxicology
·         Environmental Toxicology
·         Clinical Toxicology
·         Human and Health Toxicology
Toxicology mainly being a branch of Pharmacology involves many basic aspects which are to be discussed thoroughly at Toxicology Summit.
