    Environmental toxicology is the study of toxic or poisonous effects that chemicals in the environment have on individual organisms when exposed. Key topics covered include: 1) Sources of toxicants in organisms 2) Quantitative toxicology, genotoxicity, human health risk assessment, and ecotoxicology and ecological risk assessment. 3) The concept that the right dose differentiates between a poison and a remedy, and how low doses over long exposures can lead to sublethal effects. 4) How environmental chemicals can act on genetic material and how endocrine disruptors are some of the most studied environmental estrogens.
