Toxicology Letters

Aims & Scope

An international journal for the rapid publication of novel reports on a range of aspects of toxicology, especially mechanisms of toxicity.

Toxicology Letters serves as a multidisciplinary forum for research in toxicology.

The prime aim is the rapid publication of research studies that are both novel and advance our understanding of a particular area.

In addition to research reports, mini-reviews in various areas of toxicology will be published.

Clinical, occupational and safety evaluation, legal, risk and hazard assessment, impact on man and environment studies of sufficient novelty to warrant rapid publication will be considered.
