Questions and Answers
Four major discipline within toxicology: 1. Mechanistic toxicology- elucidates the cellular and biochemical effects of toxins. -provide a basis for rational therapy design and the development of tests to assess the degree of exposure of poisoned individuals 2. Descriptive toxicology- uses the results from animal experiments to predict what level of exposure will cause harm in humans: process known as risk assessment 3. Forensic toxicology- primarily concerned with the medicolegal consequences of toxin exposure. -major focus is establishing and validating the analytic performance of the methods used to generate evidence in legal situations, including the cause of death 4. Clinical toxicology- study of interrelationships between toxin exposure and disease states. -emphasizes not only diagnostic testing but also therapeutic intervention -analysis of drugs, metals, and other chemical agents in body fluids and tissue for the purpose of patient care.
