Description
It is foreseen that the assessment of hazard and risk of chemicals under the REACH legislation is assisted by the application of computational methods. In vivo toxicity intrinsically reflects metabolism. Consequently, risk assessment can not neglect metabolism of chemicals. Hence, the need for sophisticated methods for the prediction of metabolism with computational methods arises.This project aims for the improvement of the prediction of metabolism of industrial chemicals in mammals. The holistic investigation will consider in vivo, in vitro and in silico data in order to identify discrepancies between the different methods and to enhance the predictive power of in silico models for metabolism. |
