Analytical Chemistry
Toxicokinetics refers to the study of how a toxic substance is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted in the body. This term connects closely to the understanding of how chemicals affect living organisms and the implications for forensic analysis and toxicology. By examining the kinetics of toxic substances, scientists can predict their effects on individuals and populations, aiding in both clinical settings and criminal investigations.
