Research in Toxicology

As a researcher in toxicology, the main focus is on understanding the harmful effects of chemicals, nanoparticles, substances, or other environmental factors on human health and ecosystems. The work involves everything from designing and conducting studies to gathering reliable data on exposure risks, mechanisms of toxicity, and long-term effects.

In evidence-based toxicology, the researcher takes the studies one step further, synthesises evidence from scientific literature, uses advanced analytical techniques, and applies statistical models, a researcher aims to identify the safe exposure limits, inform regulatory policies, and contribute to public health guidelines. The work bridges toxicology, environmental science, and medicine to ensure that the scientific evidence, above all else, drives decisions on chemical safety and risk management.

Mission Statement of ResinTox

The prior work and material has been edited, relocated, and rebranded as ResinTox to provide the toxicology community, and the public, with updated software solutions, data, research, and input regarding relevant subjects that relate to healthcare providers, agencies, organisations and corporations. New content will be added as it becomes accessible, and legacy material will be integrated and backdated over time to maintain chronological consistency.

How we do it

Systematic Studies

Conducting retrospective case control- or cohort studies of readily available data to provide guidance and research methods, through systematic and collaborative work.

One recent article covers the impact that venom variability has on treatment and patient outcomes. We also work closely with other researchers on projects to provide insight and know how.

Evidence Synthesis

Conducting systematic reviews, and meta analysis on published studies to synthesise evidence.

Developing Software

Designing and implementing modern software solutions to aid toxicological analysis, data management, and risk assessment for professional communities.

Venom & Antivenom

In-depth research into animal toxins and venoms, exploring variability and mechanisms to improve treatment outcomes and snakebite management protocols.

Publish Information

Communicating findings through peer-reviewed articles, reports, and reflections to promote open science and ensure accessibility for researchers and the public.

Disclaimer

First and foremost, a very important notice. This website promotes open science and research and should be regarded as one who does. Here, some current projects are described and thoughts on other subjects are shared. The content may change at any time, if new knowledge or data emerge, or when there are scientific breakthroughs that call for the information to be revised. It is important to distinguish between scientific peer-reviewed publications and other interesting material. Most of the material you will find here, will have direct links to supporting documentation. However, some simply have clear statements on where the information comes from, or a statement that it is based on a document (Because it is most likely not ready to be published yet).

This document will, of course, be released to anyone who ask for it without hesitation for comparison reasons and a more in-depth view. A lot of focus is on animal toxins and venoms, as well as how to treat snakebites. But there are a lot of other areas that are being explored to various depths of analysis too. The blog posts are (hopefully) interesting short reflections on statements and reports that has come to our attention, and as the material in all, these may change, be revised, deleted or commented further as time goes. The intention is to provide factual and objective comments and direct links to the reports mentioned. All posts are at the writer’s discretion, and are in no case written in a capacity of authority, endorsed or officially supported by an employer, organisation, university or other, unless explicitly stated otherwise if that would be the case.

Posts are therefore not supposed to be used as verifiable references by themselves. But, the references mentioned in the posts and links point to published studies and reports. When referring to this site, or citing any post herein, remember to be transparent that it is a website, and not an official database (and that content might change the contents without prior notice). Also, you can mention that any references within posts are verifiable and published.
