DISPLAYTITLE In vitro toxicology In vitro toxicology testing toxicity testing is the scientific Scientific method analysis of the effects of toxic chemical substance s on cultured bacteria or mammalian cell biology cells . In vitro literally in glass testing methods are employed primarily to identify potentially hazardous chemicals and or to confirm the lack of certain toxic properties in the early stages of the development of potentially useful new substances such as therapeutic Medication drugs , agricultural chemicals and food additives. In vitro assays for xenobiotic toxicity are recently carefully considered by key government agencies e.g. EPA NIEHS NTP FDA , to better assess human risks.

Orphan date February 2009 Automatism , in toxicology , refers to a tendency to take a drug over and over again, forgetting each time that one has already taken the dose. This can lead to a cumulative overdose. A particular example is barbiturates which were once commonly used as hypnotic sleep inducing drugs. Among the current hypnotics, benzodiazepines , especially midazolam might show marked automatism, possibly through their intrinsic anterograde amnesia effect. Barbiturates are known to induce hyperalgesia , i.e. aggravation of pain and for sleeplessness due to pain, if barbiturates are used, more pain and more disorientation would follow leading to drug automation and finally a pseudo suicide. Such reports dominated the medical literature of 60s and 70s a reason replacing the barbiturates with benzodiazepines when they became available. ref Encyclopedia of Family Health, edition 3, from Marshall Cavendish ref ref Lexicon of Psychiatry, Neurology, and the Neurosciences by Frank J Ayd from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2000 ref References reflist Category Toxicology pharma stub med toxic stub ... more details
ForensicScience Forensic toxicology is the use of toxicology and other disciplines such as analytical chemistry , pharmacology and clinical chemistry to aid medical or legal investigation of death, poisoning, and drug use. The primary concern for forensic toxicology is not the legal outcome of the toxicological investigation or the technology utilised, but rather the obtaining and interpreting of the results. A toxicological analysis can be done to various kinds of samples. A forensic toxicologist must consider the context of an investigation, in particular any physical symptoms recorded, and any evidence collected at a crime scene that may narrow the search, such as pill bottles, powders, trace residue, and any available chemicals. Provided with this information and samples with which to work, the forensic toxicologist must determine which toxic substances are present, in what concentrations, and the probable effect of those chemicals on the person. Determining the substance ingested is often complicated by the body s natural processes see ADME , as it is rare for a chemical to remain in its original form once in the body. For example heroin is almost immediately metabolism metabolised into another substance and further to morphine , making detailed investigation into factors such as injection marks and chemical purity necessary to confirm diagnosis. The substance may also have been diluted by its dispersal through the body while a pill or other regulated dose of a drug may have ... of oral fluid is gaining importance in forensic toxicology for showing recent drug use, e.g. in clinical ... organs used for toxicology are the brain, liver, and spleen.
