This volume explores techniques that are currently used to understand solid target-specific models in computational toxicology. The chapters are divided into four sections and discuss topics such as molecular descriptors, QSAR and read-across; molecular and data modeling techniques to comply with both scientific and regulatory sides; computational toxicology in drug discovery; and strategies on how to predict various human-health toxicology endpoints. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the methods and software tools used, step-by-step, readily reproducible computational protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Computational Toxicology: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for researchers who are interested in learning more about this expanding field.
