ToxicoProteomics

Toxicoproteomics is broadly defined as the global identification and characterization of proteins expressed in complex biological systems in response to a toxin, toxicant, or other adverse chemical or environmental stimulus (Wilson and Hooser, 2018). Our laboratory has set the goal of conducting toxicological studies by developing protein analysis and low molecular substance analysis techniques based on the use of mass spectrometry. The research team in the laboratory is divided into two groups, proteomics research and low molecular substance research.
