Subchronic toxicity testing

Subchronic toxicity testing assesses the potential health effects of a substance when repeatedly exposed over a period typically lasting 90 days. This process involves giving the test substance to animals at different doses to observe any adverse effects on organs, blood, or overall health. The goal is to identify safe exposure levels and detect potential risks before human use. The data gathered helps regulators determine acceptable exposure limits and ensures the substance's safety for longer-term use.
