Summary
Outlines the use of techniques such as polymerase chain reaction assays or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to measure single mRNA products or proteins diagnostics of exposure/effects of chemicals. This book explores how data generated from new genomics technologies might actually impact/benefit the risk assessment process
