What is a Toxicologist?

Toxicologists study the effects of exposure to harmful chemicals and substances. The Toxicologist's job is to determine what effect a given substance has on people, animals, and/or the environment. An expert Toxicologist must have knowledge and experience in biology, chemistry, and forensics, and be able to apply these disciplines effectively to a broad spectrum of circumstances.

For over 20 years, Toxicology Consultants & Assessment Specialists has been providing professional toxicological consulting and expert opinions to legal firms, corporations and private individuals. TCAS offers a full range of expert toxicological evaluation and reporting services.

TCAS provides comprehensive forensic & environmental exposure and causation assessments. Expert toxicologists perform the initial research, testing, exposure and dose calculation necessary to assess potential or alleged toxic exposures for homicide poisoning, intoxication and chemical causation issues.
