toxin characterization

Toxin characterization involves studying and identifying the specific properties of a harmful substance, such as what it is made of, how it interacts with the body, and its effects. This process helps scientists understand how dangerous a toxin is, how it might cause illness, and how to detect or protect against it. Essentially, it’s about analyzing the toxin’s identity, strength, and behavior to assess risks and develop safety guidelines or treatments.
