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.

《毒理學》是一本國際性的同行評審期刊，只發表最高質量的原創科學研究和評論，描述基于假設的對外來化合物毒性機制的研究，特別是與人類健康相關的毒性機制。在這方面，“機制”既有宏觀定義（例如生理、生物、動力學、物種、性別等），也有分子定義（基因組、轉錄組、代謝等）。重點放在發現新的危害并可推斷出與評估人類風險相關的暴露和機制的發現上。《毒理學》還發表簡短的通訊、個人評論和觀點文章，以及關于當代主題的簡明專家評論。《毒理學》上發表的所有研究和評論文章都經過嚴格的同行評審。作者在提交評論文章或評論以供《毒理學》發表之前，必須聯系主編。

Toxicology創刊于1973年，由Elsevier Ireland Ltd出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋醫學 - 毒理學全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 約1.0個月 約4.2周，影響因子指數4.8，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
