There are different types of forensic science, and each plays an integral part in the criminal justice system. Forensic biology usually involved DNA testing and its results. Forensic anthropologists examine human remains that have become skeletons in an attempt to determine how long the remains have been in a location and to try to determine a

Toxicology is the study of poisons and their affects on different organisms, and the different effects each toxin has on different organisms. Toxicology is a branch of biochemistry, as well as a branch of medicine, and as such one or more degrees in biochemistry, medicine, or toxicology are required for a career in toxicology. The study of toxicology is a study in which one inspects poisons in either the body or on their own, and use it for experimental purposes; one of these purposes likely being

Unit 3 Discussion: Drug Identification and Toxicology Oxycodone 1. Using the environment to which you were assigned, provide a fictitious scenario in which an individual is exposed to the assigned toxin based on a homicide or accidental death. You can be creative or draw inspiration from a film or book. Remember to select a toxin based on the Category Block to which you were assigned based on your last name. Make sure you end your scenario with officers being called to the scene. A 16 year old girl

History of toxicology Toxicology is the scientific study of poisons and the effects it may have on a living organisms. The study involves observing and reporting symptoms, mechanisms involved, detection and treatment of toxic substances especially in relation to humans. Toxic substances are all around us and we come into contact with them on a daily basis, such as in food and drinks that we consume (additives, alcohol), in the environment around us (cigarette smoke, car fumes, herbicides), and even

Statement of the problem: The driving forces behind this work are related to the increased use of nanopolymers for biomedical purposes. Charged and neutral polymers are routinely used for gene and drug delivery. However, limited studies are performed to test their safety. Therefore, the originality of this work lies in its attempt to evaluate the toxicity of three widely used polymers for delivery of chemotherapeutic agents. Furthermore, we aim to establish efficient methods for nanotoxicity testing
