The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard is a freely accessible online database created and maintained by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The database provides access to multiple types of data including physicochemical properties, environmental fate and transport, exposure, usage, in vivo toxicity, and in vitro bioassay.
[29] [30] One model developed by the toxicology laboratory showed that children were much more susceptible than adults to chemical exposure from inhalation and oral exposure. In the aftermath of chemical spills and emergencies, the laboratory also conducts research for state and local health departments on the health effects of the chemicals ...
Historic treatment of rail ties in the Houston, Texas Fifth Ward and Kashmere Gardens neighborhoods has exposed residents to cancer-causing soil contamination. [1] Creosote and its extenders were used in wood preservation processes at a nearby rail yard and have been identified as carcinogens that are hazardous to human health.
Chemical Research in Toxicology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, published since 1988 by the American Chemical Society. [1] It is currently abstracted and indexed in Chemical Abstracts Service , Scopus , EBSCOhost , PubMed , CABI , Science Citation Index Expanded , and SwetsWise.
The National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR) is a branch of the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) located in Jefferson, Arkansas.Established in 1971, the Center conducts scientific research to provide reliable data for Food & Drug Administration decision-making and develops innovative tools and approaches that support its public health mission.
(The Center Square) – Texas has filed a lawsuit against several large chemical companies alleging they manufacture toxic forever chemicals used in products marketed as safe for families. Texas ...
Toxicology testing is commonly conducted during preclinical development for a substance intended for human exposure. Stages of in silico, in vitro and in vivo research are conducted to determine safe exposure doses in model organisms. If necessary, the next phase of research involves human toxicology testing during a first-in-man study.
The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) is a public website and research tool that curates scientific data describing relationships between chemicals, genes/proteins, diseases, taxa, phenotypes, GO annotations, pathways, and interaction modules, launched on November 12, 2004.
