What Are the Key Applications of Toxicology in Epidemiology?
Toxicology has several critical applications in epidemiology, including:
Environmental Health: Investigating the effects of environmental pollutants (e.g., air, water, soil contaminants) on population health. Occupational Health: Studying the impact of workplace exposures to hazardous substances on workers' health. Pharmaceutical Safety: Assessing the adverse effects of drugs and chemicals used in medical treatments. Food Safety: Evaluating the risks associated with contaminants in food and beverages.
