Green Tox
GREEN TOX is a research group focused on reproductive, endocrine, and environmental toxicology. They conduct research on long-term toxicity of environmental chemicals, monitoring studies of human exposure, and development of refined test methods for endocrine activity and developmental toxicity. Their mission includes providing reliable information for rational decision-making and continuous education for the scientific community and the public.
