Toxicology

Toxicology is the study of chemicals that can cause problems for living things. It’s a wide-ranging field: The chemicals may occur naturally or have been created in a lab or factory; the living things may be humans, pets, livestock, or microbes living in a pond. And the problems that concern toxicologists stretch from inconvenience to disaster—from mild skin irritation, for instance, to death. But the challenge at the heart of toxicology is not as simple as identifying dangerous chemicals and safe ones. There’s a saying among toxicologists that the dose makes the poison—a chemical that is perfectly safe at one dose may be lethal at another. You can’t live without water, for instance, but if you drink enough of it fast enough, it can kill you by disturbing the balance of sodium and water in your blood.
