Results for tag: "Toxicogenomics"

Toxicogenomics is a field of genomics that focuses on the study of the effects of environmental toxins on gene expression. It combines toxicology and genomics to understand how exposure to environmental toxins can cause changes in gene expression and lead to adverse health effects. Toxicogenomics is used to identify biomarkers of exposure and toxicity, as well as to develop new methods for assessing the safety of chemicals and drugs. It is also used to identify potential targets for drug development and to develop new strategies for risk assessment. Toxicogenomics is an important tool for understanding the effects of environmental toxins on human health. It can be used to identify potential health risks associated with exposure to environmental toxins, as well as to develop new strategies for risk assessment and drug development. Companies in the toxicogenomics market include Illumina, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Agilent Technologies, PerkinElmer, QIAGEN, and Bio-Rad Laboratories. Show Less Read more
