It will be able to make the scientists evaluate the toxicity of extraneous toxicants at the molecular level. ToxChip was successfully developed by a group of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) researchers in the United States in 1999[1]. The technology bears revolutionary significance on the traditional toxicology. It foretells the epoch in which DNA effects of environmental dangers and toxicants can be made certain rapidly and efficiently to fall. ToxChip will pioneer novel approaches for medicine, environmental and ecological toxicologies.展开更多
