Advancements in Poisoning Detection: From Traditional Methods to Next-Generation Technologies
Author(s): Mohammad Altamash*
The evolution of poisoning detection methods has progressed from
conventional approaches to cutting-edge technologies. Initially relying on
basic chemical assays and visual cues, toxicology has advanced through
chromatography, mass spectrometry, and immunoassays, improving
accuracy and expanding toxin identification. However, limitations
remained, driving the development of next-generation innovations.
The integration of nanotechnology and biosensors has led to portable,
real-time toxin monitoring systems, while molecular techniques like PCR
and DNA microarrays enable genetic marker identification. Artificial
intelligence and machine learning analyze extensive datasets, predicting
poisoning events and aiding rapid intervention. Metabolomics and
proteomics provide comprehensive biological sample profiling for a
holistic understanding. This abstract s.. View More»
