There are few true international meetings dedicated to covering multiple areas of toxicology. The XII International Congress of Toxicology (IUTOX) held from 19 to 23 July 2010 in Barcelona, Spain is one such meeting. The IUTOX is important as its emphasis is on chemical safety and integrating approaches and alternative possibilities to protecting public health. The meeting was an important forum with professional interactions in different subspecialties of toxicology addressing these current topics.
The basis of toxic effects including mechanistic, effects testing, monitoring and alternative methods are covered in this meeting highlights article. Coverage of industry, clinical toxicologists, environmentalists, regulators and technological developers is provided.
Insight into the coverage of topics discussed at the XII IUTOX meeting.
Current topics in toxicology with international impact are presently centered on new testing strategies, biomarkers and understanding mechanisms of toxicity to help address the safety and risk of substances relevant to public health.
很少有真正的国际会议专门涵盖毒理学的多个领域。第十二届国际毒理学大会（IUTOX）于 2010 年 7 月 19 日至 23 日在西班牙巴塞罗那举行，就是这样一个会议。IUTOX 很重要，因为它强调化学安全性，并整合了保护公众健康的方法和替代可能性。会议是一个重要的论坛，不同毒理学专业领域的专业人士在会上就这些当前主题进行了互动。
本次会议重点介绍了毒理学基础，包括毒理机制、效应测试、监测和替代方法。涵盖了工业、临床毒理学家、环保主义者、监管机构和技术开发者。
深入了解第十二届 IUTOX 会议讨论的主题。
当前具有国际影响的毒理学主题集中在新的测试策略、生物标志物和毒性机制的理解上，以帮助解决与公共卫生相关物质的安全性和风险问题。
