Economic and Regulatory Toxicology

Toxicology studies are frequently required by regulatory agencies to state the adverse effects of a chemical product and to guarantee that it meets the standards for safety that the agency prescribes. Regulatory toxicologists impart guidance and recommendations to risk assessors, risk managers, and policy makers on matters associated to human health risks from chemical and pharmaceutical substances. Regulatory toxicology comprises the study of toxicity profile that is compared with other known toxicants. They then establish standards for allowable limits that are consistent with other agents and with similar effects. Regulatory toxicology works as the major centre for laws that limit exposures for people and environment.
