ecotoxicological assessment

Ecotoxicological assessment is the scientific study of how chemicals and pollutants affect the environment, particularly plants, animals, and ecosystems. It evaluates the potential risks of substances to ensure they do not cause harm to wildlife, water, soil, or air. This process involves testing and analyzing data to predict possible ecological impacts, helping regulators and industries make informed decisions about safe chemical use and environmental protection. Ultimately, it aims to preserve ecosystem health and maintain biodiversity by preventing harmful environmental effects.
