Toxicology

Journal Title：Toxicology

Toxicology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes only the highest quality original scientific research and critical reviews describing hypothesis-based investigations into mechanisms of toxicity associated with exposures to xenobiotic chemicals, particularly as it relates to human health. In this respect "mechanisms" is defined on both the macro (e.g. physiological, biological, kinetic, species, sex, etc.) and molecular (genomic, transcriptomic, metabolic, etc.) scale. Emphasis is placed on findings that identify novel hazards and that can be extrapolated to exposures and mechanisms that are relevant to estimating human risk. Toxicology also publishes brief communications, personal commentaries and opinion articles, as well as concise expert reviews on contemporary topics. All research and review articles published in Toxicology are subject to rigorous peer review. Authors are asked to contact the Editor-in-Chief prior to submitting review articles or commentaries for consideration for publication in Toxicology.

《毒理学》是一本国际性的同行评审期刊，只发表最高质量的原创科学研究和评论，描述基于假设的对外来化合物毒性机制的研究，特别是与人类健康相关的毒性机制。在这方面，“机制”既有宏观定义（例如生理、生物、动力学、物种、性别等），也有分子定义（基因组、转录组、代谢等）。重点放在发现新的危害并可推断出与评估人类风险相关的暴露和机制的发现上。《毒理学》还发表简短的通讯、个人评论和观点文章，以及关于当代主题的简明专家评论。《毒理学》上发表的所有研究和评论文章都经过严格的同行评审。作者在提交评论文章或评论以供《毒理学》发表之前，必须联系主编。

Toxicology创刊于1973年，由Elsevier Ireland Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖医学 - 毒理学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度 约1.0个月 约4.2周，影响因子指数4.8，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
