Toxicity testing refers to the assessment of the harmful effects of substances on living organisms, which is crucial for determining the safety and efficacy of new drugs, chemicals, and materials. This testing aims to identify potential adverse reactions and mechanisms of toxicity, ensuring that products are safe for human use or environmental release. In the context of organ-on-a-chip and tissue engineering applications, toxicity testing plays a vital role in mimicking human biological responses and improving predictive models for drug testing.
