Overview

Metal toxicology is the study of the toxic effects of metals on organisms and ecosystems. It is an important field of research, as metals are capable of causing a range of adverse health effects including organ damage, cancer, genetic mutations and reproductive issues. Metal toxicologists investigate the impact of metals in both the environment and the human body, typically through experiments, observations, and analysis of tissues and data. The primary goals of metal toxicology are to identify potentially hazardous materials, develop methods for their safe handling and disposal, and monitor their impact on the environment. Metal toxicology is also used to inform and guide public policy regarding the use and disposal of metals.
