Journal of Toxicology and Toxicity Case Reports deals with the study of xenobiotic, toxic effects of drugs whose purpose is to provide relief or prevent disease. Toxicology is a branch of science & medicine that is concerned with the study of adverse effects caused by chemical on living organisms. Journal of Toxicology and Toxicity Case Reports addresses both scientific research and clinical advances in toxicology. The Journal of Toxicology accepts all types of articles like research, review, case reports, commentaries, hypotheses, meeting reports and short reports.
Case Reports in Toxicity Journal is peer-reviewed scientific journal that dealing with articles on different aspects of Toxicology Reports, Tests, Developmental, Chemical, Pesticidal Toxicology, Toxicogenomics and Reproductive Toxicology etc.

Reproductive Toxicology
It deals with toxic substances that effects reproductive system. It also deals with infertility, sexual dysfunction, spontaneous abortion, malformations, abnormal histogenesis, stillbirth, intrauterine growth retardation, prematurity and perinatal mortality.
Toxicogenomics
Field of science deals with gene and protein within a particular cell or tissue of an organism in relation to toxic substances. It is the combination of genomics and toxicology. It provides information regarding molecular mechanisms involved in toxicity expression.
Skin Toxicology
Skin toxicology deals with toxins that effect the integrity and functioning of the skin. When a toxin reaches the skin it results in redness, pain, heat and swelling of the affected area. It mainly deals with toxins like pesticides and fungicides.
Renal Toxicity
Renal toxicity also referred as Nephrotoxicity. It is the effect of both toxins and medicines on the kidney. Renal toxicity is seen in renal impairment patients. Decreased creatinine levels in blood and serum creatinine indicates renal impairment. Nephrotoxicity is a poisonous effect of some substances, both toxic chemicals and medication, on the kidneys.
Industrial Hygiene Toxicology
Industrial hygiene toxicology involves in health issues during exposure in a work place. This branch plays a major role in protection of personnel and surrounding community. They address the health events in acute events. Industrial hygienists and toxicologists are specialists who most commonly provide support through the on-site incident command structure during active response situations.
Tetanus Toxin
Tetanus toxin also referred as spasmogenic toxin. It is produced by clostridium tetani in anaerobic conditions. It is a potential neurotoxin and LD50 is 1ng/kg.It spreads to vascular systems and lymphatic systems. The presence of the bacteria does not cause the disease but instead the toxins it produces cause the disease state.
Drug Toxicity
Drug toxicity is also known as drug intoxication. It is uncommon cause of death. Drug toxicity generally occurs by the combination of different drugs. Drug toxicity leads to breathing suppression, lowers oxygen levels and finally fatal. Drugs become toxins when they combine with other drugs and thus causes chemical changes and causes side effects.
Toxicology Reports
Toxicology reports contain information related to research and clinical aspects. These reports provide basic information regarding toxicology such as effects of xenobiotic on humans and animals. Toxicology case reports, natural products toxicology, computational and predictive toxicology are also discussed in these reports.
Toxicology Testing
Toxicology testing is performed to detect the presence of drugs or chemicals. Toxicology tests helps in detecting the cause of life threatening diseases, in case of emergency. These tests are performed in athletes to improve their athletic ability. A toxicology test may check for one specific drug or for up to 30 different drugs at once. Testing is often done on a urine or saliva sample instead of blood, because urine and saliva tests are usually easier to do than blood tests and many drugs show up in either urine or saliva.
Chemical Toxicology
It is a multidisciplinary field that has machine and artificial chemistry, additionally to folks that focus on the fields of genetic science, drug metabolism, metabolomics, drug discovery, bioinformatics, analytical chemistry, biological chemistry and molecular medicine. It depends on technological advances to assist perceive the chemical elements of materia medica. It focuses on the structure of chemical agents and the way it affects their mechanism of action on living organisms.
Pesticidal Toxicology
Toxicology deals with pesticides which are used for the control of pests. The relative hazard of a chemical depends upon the toxicity of the chemical, the dose received and therefore the length of your time exposed. The hazard in employing a chemical is expounded to the chance of exposure to harmful amounts of the chemical. Exposure will be influenced by concentration of the chemical and instrument used for application.
Developmental Toxicology
Developmental pharmacological medicine could be a science finding out adverse organic process outcomes. Developmental toxicity is any structural or useful alteration, reversible or irreversible, that interferes with physiological condition, traditional growth, differentiation, development or behaviour and that is caused by environmental insult
Cardiac Toxicity
Cardiac toxicity refers to heart dysfunction or cardiac muscle damage. Toxicity to heart can be due to intake of heavy metals, eating disorder such as anorexia nervosa or incorrect administration of drugs. Cardiac toxicity leads to weakening of heart and leads to delay in circulation.
Nano Toxicology
Nano Toxicology deals with toxic studies of nanomaterial. Due to quantum size of nanoparticles they exhibit more toxicity. Nano toxicology deals with application of nanomaterial toxicity. Nano toxicological studies are supposed to see whether or not and to what extent nanoparticles might create a threat to environment and human beings.
Heavy Metal Toxicity
Lead, mercury and cadmium are examples of heavy metals. Treatment of metal toxicity may be chelation therapy. Acute heavy metal intoxications mainly damages central nervous function, lungs, kidneys, liver, endocrine glands and bones. Risk factors for metal poisoning may be overexposure to concentrations that occur naturally (e.g., arsenic-rich mineral deposits) or human activities.
Aflatoxins
Mycotoxins are also known as aflatoxins. These are naturally occurring produced by fungi species. These are carcinogenic and toxic to the body. Aflatoxins producing species are widely spread in nature and present in host crops such as maize, groundnuts and sorghum. FDA has approved 20 and 300ppb levels of aflatoxin in food.
Heavy Metal Toxins
Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic and cadmium are commonly associated with metal poisoning. Zinc, copper, chromium, iron and manganese are required in small amounts to our body but when present in excess leads to toxicity. They cause damage to internal organs such as renal impairment, CNS damage.
Insecticides Toxicology
Branch of toxicology deals with insecticides. Most of the insecticides enter through skin. Some of the insecticides are volatile and enter through inhalation into the body. This branch also deals with safety, degradation and refinement of insecticides in environment. Laboratory investigations provide a better understanding of insect- insecticide or insect-plant-insecticide-soil interactions.
Metal Toxicology
Metal cyanogenicity or metal poisoning is the toxic impact of sure metals in sure forms and doses on life. Some metals are cyanogenic. Toxic metals interfere the metabolic process which leads to illness. Metals in oxidised form are harmful and toxic. The toxicity of heavy metals depends on a number of factors. Specific symptomatology varies according to the metal in question, the total dose absorbed, and whether the exposure was acute or chronic. The age of the person can also influence toxicity.
