Impact/Purpose:
Invited Talk at Wageningen University the Netherlands June 2018
Description:
What is new with the ToxCast Strategy? Nuclear receptor multispecies screening, high-throughput transcriptomics, phenotypic screening cell painting assay, and use of metabolic activation systems in vitro. In vitro/alternative approaches are valuable for chemical prioritization, especially where we understand the toxicity pathways. May also be useful in conservative point-of-departure approaches for unknown/non-selective effects. Combining these new strategies with exposure predictions allows prioritization for risk assessment.
