Toxicology

Imagine a life locked away in a cage with no form of control on your existence. It’s cold, dark, and you are scared. You don’t have a choice of what you eat, where you live, or how you are treated. You are unsure if it is day or night or what will happen to you next. You are locked away in a prison cell and you committed no crime. This is the life of a laboratory animal. Animal testing is the use of animals for scientific research purposes and experiments. It can be used for the findings of cures

Profiling is a tool used that emerges forensics, psychology, and criminology to understand criminals such as rapist and serial killers. This technique has been used for centuries to unveil motives, disorders, and history. Law enforcements work with the information they are given to create profiles of the criminals based on their characteristics and evidence. Law enforcement have tried to track patterns and predict the next criminal act, but with the lack of training that has been done for such rare

basically civil cases. I then went out to Arizona, to work for an animal control agency. There I worked with a veterinarian that also loved forensics. We would go to the scene, gather evidence, and take pictures. At the shelter we would do what toxicology we could. We documented injury's with pictures, use different light sources to find injuries. If needed we would do necropsies. She even did bite casts, to document animal bites. She lit the fire in my brain once again. While out there I applied

a competitive for certain projects. In my professional life, I have been fortunate enough to work in research based chemistry positions. Working at Cordant Health Solution gave me excellent chemical experience. In the period I was at the toxicology lab, I learned how the liquid chromatography machines work, types of pharmaceuticals and effects, also learned how to maintain and repair the machines while being heavily involved in the research and development. My most notable accomplishments

EXPLORING SAFETY-RELATED GOVERNMENT WEBSITES A1 The Mission of the CDC is to protect America from health, safety, and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S. The agency is organized with many smaller branches, including National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), and also the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD).

Within research contexts, is it justified for us to do things to animals that we would consider unethical if we did those things to humans The utilization of animals in the field of both scientific and medical research has prompted several arguments and debates in the course of recent years throughout the world. Using animals for research has been a typical angle as few out of every odd research can be attempted on people because of ‘moral’ and ‘ethical’ purposes. The fact that only human beings

For example, Qing C, Chen P and Xiang X, who are Chinese scientists at the Zhong Nan Da Xue Xue Bao Yi Xue Ban of China. "Effect of tea polyphenols on oxidative damage and apoptosis in human bronchial epithelial cells induced by low-dose cigarette smoke condensate" is another study that has be conducted by those three experts. Since the university is so well known in China and

analysis is faster and is measured in minutes (Cheriyadath). The objective was to determine if Gas Chromatography was truly the better method for separating whole blood from anti-depressants (Truta, Castro and Tarelho). As we have a learned in class, toxicology has become an important aspect of forensic science for analyzing chemical substances in the body and how it may or may not have played a factor in a crime. Recently a new method for identifying and quantifying antidepressants in whole blood has

Animal testing is cruel and inhumane. According to Humane Society International, animals used in experiments are commonly subjected to force feeding, forced inhalation, food and water deprivation, prolonged periods of physical restraint, the infliction of burns and other wounds to study the healing process, the infliction of pain to study its effects and remedies, and "killing by carbon dioxide asphyxiation, neck-breaking, decapitation, or other means."
