Aim & Scope

Sound and reproducible laboratory methods are the foundation of scientific discovery. Yet, all too often, nuances that are critical for an experiment’s success are not captured in the primary literature but exist only as part of a lab’s oral tradition. The aim of each Current Protocols title is to provide the clearest, most detailed and reliable step-by-step instructions for all protocols relevant to a given subject area. Written by experts in the field and extensively edited to our exacting standards, the protocols include all of the information necessary to complete an experiment in the laboratory—introduction, materials lists with supplier information, detailed step-by-step procedures with helpful annotations, recipes for reagents and solutions, illustrative figures and information-packed tables. Each article also provides invaluable discussions of background information, applications of the methods, important assumptions, key parameters, time considerations, and tips to help avoid common pitfalls and troubleshoot experiments. Furthermore, Current Protocols content is thoughtfully organized by topic for optimal usage and to maximize contextual knowledge. Quarterly issues allow Current Protocols in Toxicology to constantly evolve to keep pace with the newest discoveries and developments. Current Protocols in Toxicology takes a multidisciplinary approach to providing toxicologists, pharmacologists, environmentalists, basic andscientists and others with the research tools they need to analyze the effects of environmental agents, toxicants, and xenobiotics on animals and humans and also includes clinical methodology for safety evaluation, drug testing and risk/ exposure assessment. The carefully edited step-by-step protocols and related commentary are written by scientists in the field from around the world. Topics include: Toxicological Models; Cellular and Molecular Toxicicology; Genetic Toxicology; Techniques for Analysis of Chemical Biotransformation; Toxicokinetics and Toxicogenomics; Oxidant and Anti-Oxidant Mechanisms; Heme Metabolism and Erythrocyte Toxicity; Neurotoxicology; Teratology; Hepatotoxicology; Renal Toxicology; Gene Targeting; Reproductive Toxicology; Immunotoxicology; Regulatory and Safety Testing; Gastrointestinal Toxicology and the Microbiome; Stem Cells in Toxicology; Xenobiotic Toxicology; Respiratory Toxicology; Mitochondrial Toxicity; Developmental and Juvenile Toxicology; Risk and Exposure Assessment; Clinical Toxicology and Therapeutic Drug Monitoring; Alternative Methodologies in Toxicology. The target audience for Current Protocols in Toxicology is anyone who is conducting research in the broad field of toxicology, with only a minimum of basic laboratory experience. Sufficient detail is provided to permit duplication of the protocols in any laboratory, whatever the disciplinary background or level of sophistication. ^[1]
